Dinah Shore – The Stanley Steamer lyrics
Get your veil and get your duster
Get the yen for goggles when the wind's a guster
Keep your Hubbard gown
Firmly belted down
When you're out in your Stanley Steamer
In a gale we never fluster
`Cause we're told we get that old familiar lustre
If you're dressed in style
Ev'ryone will smile
When you're out in your Stanley Steamer
Honk, honk!
Honk, honk, honk!
The donkey used to have his charm
But he's looking at us with alarm
For it looks like he's back to the farm
But if you fail with your combustor
Then your speed is gonna need a new adjuster
And you must be just
Just the one we trust
Or we won't step inside
No, we won't take the ride
That you plan in your Stanley Steamer
That you plan in your Stanley Steamer
In your Stanley Steamer automobile.

Chug, chug, chug, chug,
Chug, chug, chug, chug, chug, chug.
That flat tyre was so unexpected
There she sat alone and rejected
I started to sigh
Then I caught the eye
Of the man in the Stanley Steamer
It began to rain
When along the lane
Came the man in the Stanley Steamer
He was a sight to make me tingle
And a dish to make me glad that I was single
He proposed a ride
So I hopped inside
And away we started in the Stanley Steamer
It was not that she was stupid
Nor the shot she thought she got from Mr Cupid
I just lost my heart
From the very start
To the man in the Stanley Steamer
Honk, honk!
Honk, honk, honk!
The tandem bike has had its day
If you're ridin' one you'll find that they
Poke along in an obsolete way
With all the bright anticipation
Like a child with a wild imagination
And we wanna ride, wanna ride inside
Of the latest motor deal
Wanna sit behind the wheel
With the man in the Stanley Steamer
With the man in the Stanley Steamer
I'm a-nothin' but a dreamer
In your Stanley Steamer
Stanley Steamer automobile.
