[00:10.86] When I take you out, tonight, with me,

[00:15.98] Honey, here's the way it's goin' to be,

[00:19.70] You will set behind a team of snow white horses,

[00:25.25] In the slickest gig you ever see!

[00:31.97] Chicks and ducks and geese better scurry

[00:34.71] When I take you out in the surrey,

[00:37.97] When I take you out in the surrey with the fringe on top!

[00:43.21] Watch that fringe and see how it flutters

[00:46.70] When I drive them high steppin' strutters.

[00:49.64] Nosey pokes'll peek thru' their shutters and their eyes will pop!

[00:55.18] The wheels are yeller, the upholstery's brown,

[00:58.69] The dashboard's genuine leather,

[01:01.40] With isinglass curtains y' can roll right down,

[01:04.93] In case there's a change in the weather.

[01:07.89] Two bright sidelight's winkin' and blinkin',

[01:11.21] Ain't no finer rig I'm a-thinkin'

[01:14.24] You can keep your rig if you're thinkin' 'at I'd keep to swap

[01:19.42] Fer that shiny, little surrey with the fringe on the top!

[01:25.59] Did you say the fringe was made of silk

[01:31.32] Wouldn't have no other kind but silk

[01:35.30] Does it really have a team of snow white horses

[01:40.60] One's like snow, the others more like milk

[01:48.08] All the world'll fly in a flurry

[01:51.33] When I take you out in the surrey,

[01:54.10] When I take you out in the surrey with the fringe on top!

[02:00.56] When we hit that road, hell fer leather,

[02:03.85] Cats and dogs'll dance in the heather,

[02:06.79] Birds and frogs'll sing all together and the toads will hop!

[02:12.35] The wind'll whistle as we rattle along,

[02:15.59] The cows'll moo in the clover,

[02:18.56] The river will ripple out a whispered song,

[02:21.87] And whisper it over and over

[02:25.08] Don't you wishty'd go on forever?

[02:28.36] Don't you wishty'd go on forever?

[02:31.38] Don't you wishty'd go on forever and you'd never stop

[02:37.07] In that shiny, little surrey with the fringe on the top!

[03:01.28] I can see the stars gettin' blurry,

[03:05.97] When we drive back home in the surrey,

[03:11.44] Drivin' slowly home in the surrey with the fringe on top!

[03:21.14] I can feel the day gettin' older,

[03:26.07] Feel a sleepy head on my shoulder,

[03:31.26] Noddin', droopin' close to my shoulder, till it falls kerplop!

[03:41.52] The sun is swimmin' on the rim of a hill,

[03:46.75] The moon is takin' a header,

[03:51.41] And jist as I'm thinkin' all the earth is still,

[03:56.91] A lark'll wake up in the medder.

[04:06.27] Hush, you bird, my baby's a-sleepin'!

[04:12.06] Maybe got a dream worth a-keepin'

[04:17.27] Whoa! you team, and jist keep a-creepin' at a slow clip clop.

[04:27.56] Don't you hurry with the surrey with the fringe on the top!
