Down By the Station - The Four Preps

Down by the station early in the morning

Met a little girl about as cute as she could be

I turned on my charms and told her that I loved her

I said that she would always be the number one for me

She’d always be my number one girl

I said there’d be no number two or three

Down in the malt shop shortly thereafter

Met another girl about as cute as she could be

I looked for number one and when I didn’t see her

I told number two she was the only girl for me

Went to the drug store and nearly lost my life

There I saw my girlfriends, one and two

Standing there together, I knew I was in trouble

But I’m a clever guy I knew what to do

I went on down by the station early in the morning

I was wooing women as cute as they could be

But then I saw another girl lookin kinda pretty

I said I’m through with one and two

I love you number three

I said I love you number three

And here’s what she said to me

Just head on down by the station early in the morning

Catch yourself a trolley car that goes into the sea

I want a love that’s true sir, not a love like you sir

You weren’t true to one and two

You won’t be true to me

Down by the station early in the morning

See the little puffer-bellies all in a row

See the station master pull the little handle

Chug, chug, woo, woo, off they go
