Beer barrel polka




元々はチェコで作曲された「スコダ ラスキ」(楽譜
出版は1934年)という失恋の歌。これがドイツで
「ロザムンデ」という片想いの若者の歌になり、さら
にアメリカで「ビヤ樽ポルカ」(1939年)に変身。



There's a garden, what a garden,
Only happy faces bloom there
And there's never any room there
For a worry or a gloom there.
Oh! there's music and there's dancing
And a lot of sweet romancing
When they play a polka
They all get in the swing:
Ev'ry time they hear that oom-pa-pa
Ev'rybody feels so tra-la-la
They want to throw their cares away
They all go lah-de-ah-de-ay,
Then they hear a rumble on the floor
It's the big surprise they're waiting for
And all the couples form a ring
For miles around you'll hear them sing:

|: Roll out the barrel
   We'll have a barrel of fun
   Roll out the barrel
   We've got the blues on the run.
   Zing! Boom! Ta-ra-rel
   Ring out a song of good cheer!
   Now's the time to roll the barrel
   For the gang's all here. :|
