Lyrics[]
There's a garden, what a garden
Only happy faces bloom there
And there's never any room there
For a worry or gloom there
(There's music and there's dancing
And a lot of polka prancing)
When they play the polka
They all get in the swing
(Everytime you hear that oom-pah-pah)
Everybody feels so tra-la-la
(They all throw their cares away)
They all go la de da dee day
(And you hear that rumble on the floor)
It's a big surprise we're waiting for
(Then all at once we'll form a ring)
For miles around, you'll hear us sing
Roll out the barrel
(Roll out the barrel)
Yes, we'll have a barrel of fun
(We'll have a barrel of fun)
Roll out the barrel
(Roll out the barrel)
We've got the blues on the run
(We've got the blues on the run)
Zing boom terrara
(Zing tarrera)
Ring out a song of good cheer
(Ring out a song of good cheer)
Now it's time to roll the barrel
(For the gang's all here)
(repeat)
