The Surrey With The Fringe On Top — текст песни (Oklahoma!)

When I take you out, tonight, with me,
Honey, here`s the way it`s goin` to be:
You will set behind a team of snow white horses,
In the slickest gig you ever see!

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 yeller, 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 c`n keep your rig if you`re thinkin` `at I`d keer to swap
Fer that shiny, little surrey with the fringe on the top!
All the world`ll fly in a flurry
When I take you out in the surrey,
When I take you out in the surrey with the fringe on top!
When we hit that road, hell fer leather,
Cats and dogs`ll dance in the heather,
Birds and frogs`ll sing all together and the toads will hop!
The wind`ll whistle as we rattle along,
The cows`ll moo in the clover,
The river will ripple out a whispered song,
And whisper it over and over:
Don`t you wisht y`d go on forever?
Don`t you wisht y`d go on forever?
Don`t you wisht y`d go on forever and ud never stop
In that shiny, little surrey with the fringe on the top!
I can see the stars gettin` blurry,
When we drive back home in the surrey,
Drivin` 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, till it falls kerplop!
The sun is swimmin` on the rim of a hill;
The moon is takin` a header,
And jist as I`m thinkin` all the earth is still,
A lark`ll wake up in the medder.
Hush, you bird, my baby`s a-sleepin`!
Maybe got a dream worth a-keepin`
Whoa! you team, and jist keep a-creepin` at a slow clip clop.
Don`t you hurry with the surrey with the fringe on the top!
