[00:00.00]The Surrey With A Fringe On Top - Alfred Drake/Joan Roberts/Betty Garde
[00:02.54]When I take you out tonight with me
[00:06.70]Honey here's the way it's goin' to be
[00:10.66]You will set behind a team of snow white horses
[00:14.97]In the slickest pig you ever see
[00:21.59]Chicks and ducks and geese better scurry
[00:24.38]When I take you out in the surrey
[00:27.13]When I take you out in the surrey with the fringe on top
[00:33.21]Watch that fringe and see how it flutters
[00:36.06]When I drive them high steppin' strutters
[00:38.98]Nosey pokes'll peek thru' their shutters and their eyes will pop
[00:44.71]The wheels are yeller the upholstery's brown
[00:47.93]The dashboard's genuine leather
[00:50.57]With isinglass curtains you' can roll right down
[00:53.83]In case there's a change in the weather
[00:56.77]Two bright sidelight's winkin' and blinkin'
[00:59.80]Ain't no finer rig I'm a thinkin'
[01:02.67]You c'n keep your rig if you're thinkin' 'at I'd keer to swap
[01:08.03]Fer that shiny little surrey with the fringe on the top
[01:15.70]I can see the stars gettin' blurry
[01:20.10]When we ride back home in the surrey
[01:24.64]Ridin' slowly home in the surrey with the fringe on top
[01:33.81]I can feel the day gettin' older
[01:38.89]Feel a sleepy head near my shoulder
[01:43.95]Noddin' droopin' close to my shoulder till it falls kerplop
[01:53.74]The sun is swimmin' on the rim of a hill
[01:59.01]The moon is takin' a header
[02:03.38]And jist as I'm thinkin' all the earth is still
[02:08.80]A lark'll wake up in the medder
[02:20.22]Hush you bird my baby's a sleepin'
[02:25.13]Maybe got a dream worth a keepin'
[02:30.99]Whoa you team and jist keep a creepin' at a slow clip clop
[02:41.48]Don't you hurry with the surrey with the fringe on the top
