Judy Garland - The Trolley Song Lyrics

(ALL)

Clang, clang, clang went the trolley
Ding, ding, ding went the bell
Zing, zing, zing went my heartstrings as we started for Huntington Dell.
Chug, chug, chug went the motor
Bump, bump, bump went the brake
Thump, thump, thump went my heartstrings as we glided for Huntington Lake

The day was bright, the air was sweet
The smell of honeysuckle charmed me off my feet
I tried to sing, but could not squeak
In fact I felt so good I could not even speak
Buzz, buzz, buzz went the buzzer
Time to all disembark,

Time to fall went my heartstrings as we got off at Huntington Park as we got off at Huntington Park.

(Judy)

With my high-starched collar, and my high-topped shoes
And my hair piled high upon my head
I went to lose a jolly hour on the Trolley and lost my heart instead.

With his light brown derby and his bright green tie
He was quite the handsomest of men
I started to yen, so I counted to ten the I counted to ten again
Clang, clang, clang went the trolley
Ding, ding, ding went the bell
Zing, zing, zing went my heartstrings
From the moment I saw him I fell
Chug, chug, chug went the motor
Bump, bump, bump went the brake
Thump, thump, thump went my heartstrings
When he smiled I could feel the car shake
He tipped his hat, and took a seat
He said he hoped he had not stepped upon my feet
He asked my name, I held my breath
I could not speak because he scared me half to death
Chug, chug, chug went the motor
Plop, plop, plop went the wheels
Stop, stop, stop went my heartstrings
As he started to go then I started to know how it feels
When the universe reels

(All)

The day was bright, the air was sweet
The smell of honeysuckle charmed you off your feet
You tried to sing, but could not squeaks
In fact, you loved him so you could not even speak

(Judy)

Buzz, buzz, buzz went the buzzer
Plop, plop, plop went the wheels
Stop, stop, stop went my heartstrings
As he started to leave I took hold of his sleeve with my hand
And as if it we're planned he stay on with me
And it was grand just to stand with his hand holding mine
To the end of the line
