  There's a sweet young Miss, I love to kiss 

  But listen close and hear me 

  She's not my only love, I have another love 

  And she'll just have to share me 

  But she's five foot tall, high heel and all 

  She already knows 

  She had some competition, in a composition 

  Known as polka on an old banjo

  Polka on a banjo 

  Make that five string hot 

  Polka on a banjo 

  Give it all you've got 

  Polka on a banjo 

  Watch them fingers go 

  Of all the songs I guess, the one that I love best 

  Is the polka on an old banjo

  And when they start the band, she takes me by the hand 

  And I begin to swing her 

  She knows I never miss, a chance to steal a kiss 

  Or dance the polka with her 

  I don't speak a word ,once I have heard 

  The one thing I love so 

  She's caught in the middle, she played the second fiddle 

  To a polka on an old banjo
