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 bound to entertain ya
Everybody has a mania
To do the polka from Pennsylvania
While they're dancing
Everybody's cares are quickly gone
Sweet romancing
This goes on and on until the dawn
They're so carefree
Gay with laughter happy as can be
They stop to have a beer
Then the crowd begins to cheer
They kiss and then they start to dance again
While they're dacing all around
Everybody's cares are quickly gone
Sweet romancing
This goes on and on and on until the dawn
Haa haa haa ha haa
Gay with laughter they're happy as can be
They stop to have a beer
Then the crowd begins to cheer
They kiss and then they start to kiss again
Pick out your partner and join in the fun
And it's bound to entertain ya
Everybody has a mania
To do the polka from Pennsylvania
