The Surrey with the Fringe on Top-Nat King Cole

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 steppen strutters Nosy pokes will peek through their shutters and their eyes will pop! The wheels are yellow, the upholstry's brown The dashboard's genuine leather With eisenglass curtains you can roll right down In case there's a change in the weather Two bright side lights winkin' and blinkin' Ain't no finer rig I'm a thinkin' You can keep your rig if you're thinkin that I'd keer to swap Fer that shiny little surrey with the fringe on the top Would you say the fringe was made of silk? Wouldn't have no other kind but silk Has it really got a team of snow white horses? One's like snow, the other's more like milk I can see the stars gettin' blurry When we ride back home in the surrey Ridin' slowly home on the surrey With the fringe on top I can feel the day gettin' older Feel a sleepy head near my shoulder Till it falls kerplop The sun is swimming on the rim of a hill The moon is taking a header And just when I'm thinking 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 and just keep a creepin' At a slow clip clop Don't you hurry little surrey With the fringe on the top
