Surrey With The Fringe On Top Lyrics

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 and see how it flutters
When I drive them high steppin' strutters
Nosey pokes'll peek thru their shutters
And their eyes will pop

The wheels are yellow, the upholstery's brown
The dashboard's genuine leather
With isinglass curtains y'can roll right down
In case there's a change in the weather

Two bright sidelight's winkin' and blinkin'
Ain't no finer rig I'm a thinkin'
You can keep your rig if you're thinkin'
'At I'd care to swap
For that shiny little surrey
With the fringe on the top

I can feel the night gettin' blurry
As we drive back home in the surrey
Driving slowly home in the surrey
With the fringe on top

I can feel the day gettin' older
Feel a sleepy head on my shoulder
Noddin', droopin' close to my shoulder
'Til it falls ker-plop

The sun is swimmin' on the rim of a hill
The moon is takin' a header
And just as I'm thinkin' all the earth is still
A lark'll wake up in the meader

Hush, you bird, my baby is sleepin'
Maybe got a dream worth a-keepin'
Whoa, you team, just keep a-creepin'
At a slow clip-clop
Don't you hurry with the surrey
With the fringe on the top

All those chicks, ducks and geese better scurry
When I take you out in the surrey
I'll take you out in the surrey
With the fringe on top

I'll take you out in the surrey
With the fringe on top
