POLKA GIRL
Written By Ezra Vancil (BMI)

She’s the polka girl from Tennessee
she moves her hips to a different beat
When she’s dancin’ all the world is free
she’s the polka girl from Tennessee

So I bought her a drink with extra sauce
I said girl let’s dance till the world just stops
I did my jig and the Texas waltz
she said man you can’t dance, but it’s not your fault

See I’m a polka girl from Tennessee
I move my hips to a different beat
When I’m dancin’ all my world is free
'cause I’m a polka girl from Tennessee


Dance me round that old oak floor
show me what you’re dancin’ for
Spin around so I can see
the polka girl from Tennessee

I said hold on now, give me half a chance
I buy a book and I learned that dance
I’d walked the coals to that awful beat
If you’d just take my hand and rescue me

Dance around that old oak floor
show me what you’re dancin’ for
Spin around so I believe
the polka girl from Tennessee


So I learned that dance, I sang that song.
I sang oompah, oompah all day long
Well, it was much too sweet and too much fun
And that’s not me, no, I’m the lonely one

She’s the polka girl from Tennessee
She’s the polka girl from Tennessee
And a polka dancer I’ll never be
Like the polka girl from Tennessee

Dance around that old oak floor
show me what we’re dancin’ for
Spin around so young and free
like the polka girl from Tennessee.
