UPON THE TROLLEY LINE 
Lyrics: Vincent Bryan - Music: Leo Edwards (1905)

Various


(1.) When I wants a moonlight ride,
And when my honey's by my side,
Of all the rides I ever tried,
I likes a trolley car for mine.

I don't want no motor car, 
No birch canoe or gondola,
For I can go just twice as far,
Upon the trolley line.

(2.) Can't afford no motor boats;
I don't like mules or billy goats;
A horse can eat a lot of oats;
An auto has to pay a fine.

Airships is too high for me,
And yachts get shipwrecked out at sea,
But I can spoon in luxury
Upon the trolley line.
