Surrey With the Fringe On Top -Blossom Dearie
Chicks and ducks and geese better scurry
When I take you out in a surrey
When I take you out in a surrey
With the fringe on top
Watch the ducks and see how it flutters
When I drive my high steppin' strutters
Nosey pokes'll peek
through their shutters
And their eyes will pop
The wheels are yellow,
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 sidelight's
winking and blinking
Ain't no finer rig I'm a-thinkin'
You can keep that rig if
you're thinking that I'd care to swap
For that shiny little surrey
with the fringe on the top
I can see the stars gitting blurry
As we ride back home in the surry
driving slowly home in the surry
With the fringe on top
I can feel the day gettin' older
sleepy head near my shoulder
Nodding, drooping, close to my shoulder
Till it falls kerplop.
The sun is swimming on the rim of a hill
The moon is taking a header.
And jist as I'm thinking
all the earth is still
A lark'll wake up in the meader.
Hush, you bird. My baby's a sleeping
Maybe got a dream worth a keeping
Whoa, you team an' jist keep a creeping
At a slow clip, clop.
Don't you hurry little Surry
With The Fringe On the Top.
Chicks and ducks and geese better scurry
When I take you out in a surrey
I take you out in a surrey
With the fringe on top
I'll take you out in my surrey
With the fringe on top
