"The Pennsylvania Polka" lyrics

Strike up the music, the band has begun
(The Pennsylvania Polka)
Pick out your partner and join in the fun
(The Pennsylvania Polka)
It started in Scranton, it's now number one
It's gonna entertain ya
Everybody has a mania
To do the polka from Pennsylvania

(While they're dancing)
Everybody's cares are quickly gone
(Dancing, dancing)
This goes on and on
Until the dawn
(We're so carefree)
Gay with laughter, happy as can be
They stop to have a laugh
And the crowd begins to cheer
(They dance, and dance, and start to dance again)

Strike up the music, the band has begun
(The Pennsylvania Polka)
Pick out your partner and join in the fun
(The Pennsylvania Polka)
It started in Scranton, it's now number one
It's gonna entertain ya
Everybody has a mania
To do the polka from Pennsylvania

(While they're dancing)
Everybody's cares are quickly gone
(Dancing, dancing)
This goes on and on
Until the dawn
(We're so carefree)
Gay with laughter, happy as can be
They stop to have a laugh
And the crowd begins to cheer
(They dance, and dance, and then they dance again!)
