Testo The Surrey with the Fringe on the Top - Christine Ebersole feat. Billy Stritch
Testo della canzone The Surrey with the Fringe on the Top (Christine Ebersole feat. Billy Stritch), tratta dall'album In Your Dreams
Chicks and ducks and geese better scurry
When I take you out in the surrey
When I take you out in the surrey with the fringe on top
Watch that fringe an' see how it flutters
When I drive them high steppin' strutters
Nosy pokes'll peek through their shutters
An' their eyes will pop
The wheels are yeller, the upholstery's brown
The dashboard's genuine leather
With isinglass curtains you can roll right down
In case there's a change in the weather
Two bright sidelights winkin' and blinkin'
Ain't no finer rig I'm a thinkin'
You can keep your rig if you're thinkin' that I'd care to swap
Fer that shiny little surrey with the fringe on the top
All the world will fly in a flurry
When I take you out in the surrey
When I take you out in the surrey with the fringe on top
When we hit the road, help our leather
Cats and dogs will dance in the heather
Birds and frogs will sing all together
And the toads will hop
The wind'll whistle as we rattle along
The cows'll moo in the clover
The river will ripple on a whispered song
And whisper it over and over
Don't you wish you'd go on forever?
Don't you wish you'd go on forever?
Don't you wish you'd go on forever
And never stop?
In that shiny little surrey
(In that shiny little surrey)
With the fringe on the top
I can see the stars gettin' blurry
When we drive back home in the surrey
Drivin' slowly home in the surrey with the fringe on top
I can feel the day gettin' older
Feel a sleepy head near my shoulder
Noddin', droopin', close to my shoulder
'Til it falls, kerplop
The sun is swimmin' on the rim of the hill
The moon is takin' a header
And jist as I'm thinkin' all the earth is still
A lark'll wake up in the meader
Hush, you bird, my baby's a sleepin'
Maybe got a dream worth a keepin'
Whoa, you team, an' jist keep a creepin'
At a slow clip clop
Don't you hurry with the surrey
(Don't you hurry with the surrey)
With the fringe on the top
