The Trolley Song / Hi Lili, Hi Lo - So What!/Pearl Bailey/Gene Kelley/Dick Haymes
With my high-starched collar and my high-top 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
Then 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 break
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 hadn't stepped upon my feet
He asked my name I held my breath
I couldn't speak because he scared me half to death
Buzz buzz buzz went the buzzer
Flop flop flop 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
The day was bright the air was sweet
The smell of honeysuckle charmed you off your feet
You tried to sing but couldn't squeak
In fact you loved him so you couldn't even speak
Buzz buzz buzz went the buzzer
Flop flop flop 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 were planned
He stayed on with me
And it was grand just to stand
With his hand holding mine
To the end of the line
On every tree there sits a bird singing a song of love
On every tree there sits a bird and everyone I ever heard
Could break my heart without a word singing a song of love
A song of love is a sad song
Hi-Lili Hi-Lili Hi-Lo
A song of love is a song of woe
Don't ask me how I know
A song of love is a sad song
For I have loved and it's so
Hi-Lili Hi-Lili Hi-Lo Hi-Lo
Hi-Lili Hi-Lili Hi-Lo
Hi-Lili Hi-Lili Hi-Lo Hi-Lo
Hi-Lili Hi-Lili Hi-Lo
A song of love is a sad song
Hi-Lili Hi-Lili Hi-Lo
A song of love is a song of woe
Don't ask me how I know
A song of love is a sad song
For I have loved and it's so
Hi-Lili Hi-Lili Hi-Lo Hi-Lo
Hi-Lili Hi-Lili Hi-Lo
Hi-Lili Hi-Lili Hi-Lo Hi-Lo
Hi-Lili Hi-Lili Hi-Lo
