Honey, here's the way it's gonna be
You will set behind a team
In the slickest gig you ever see
When I take you out in the surrey
When I take you out in the surrey
Watch that fringe and see how it flutters
Nosy folks will peek through the shutters,
the dashboard's genuine leather.
With eyes and glass curtains, you
Ain't no finer rig, I'm a -thinkin'
if you're thinkin' that I'd
For that shiny little Surrey
with the fringe on the top
I can see the stars getting blurry
when we drive back home in the Surrey,
driving slowly home in the Surrey
I can feel the day gettin' older,
feel a sleepy head on my shoulder,
none droopin' close to my shoulder till it falls,
The sun is swimmin' on the rim of a hill,
the moon is takin' a header,
a lark will wake up in the matter.
Maybe got a dream worth a keepin'.
Pull your team and just keep a -creepin'
Don't you hurry with the surrey
with the fringe on the top
Don't you hurry with the surrey,
with the fringe on the top.
