Frank Crumit - Thanks For The Buggy Ride

Tekst piosenki:


The other day I took a ride, but not in a machine
It was a buggy ride, with my sweetie by my side
Now making love going 50 miles an hour don't compare with the one horse power
Many cars I've tried, but give me a buggy ride

Thanks for the buggy ride, thanks for the buggy ride
I had a wonderful time
No smell of gasoline, just an old fashioned team
It was a wonderful treat to hear the patter of horses feet

My bones were nearly broke, I took it as a joke
It was all new to me
'Cause I was used to riding in a big limousine
But buggy ride and lovin' sure beats any machine
Now although I lost my pride, thanks for the buggy ride
I had a wonderful time

Now since I took that buggy ride that's all I want to do
No more machines for me, taking chances hitting the tree
Let me give you some sensible advice, a buggy ride is awfully nice
Though it's not in the style, the ride sure is worthwhile

Thanks for the buggy ride, thanks for the buggy ride
I had a wonderful time
I like the smell of hay and watch the chickens play
I framed the colorful scene where pigs were gambling on the green

He sets an awful pace, he couldn't win a race from an old fashioned snail
I never knew a horse could see so good in the dark
He must have found a hundred different places to park
By gosh, darn his pesky hide, thanks for the buggy ride
I had a wonderful time

Thanks for the buggy ride, thanks for the buggy ride
I had a wonderful time
No smell of gasoline, just an old fashioned team
It was a wonderful treat to hear the patter of horses feet

My bones were nearly broke, I took it as a joke
It was all new to me
These dullards with their motorcycles hand me a laugh
The girlie in the tub looks like she's taking a bath
Still, I'm more than satisfied, thanks for the buggy ride
I had a wonderful time

Wait for the wagon,
Wait for the wagon,
Wait for the wagon,
We'll all take a ride!
