 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 the polka 

 They all get in the swing 

  

 Every time they hear that oom-pa-pa 

 Everybody 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, 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 tararrel, ring out a song of good cheer 

 Now's the time to roll the barrel, for the gang's all here 

  

 Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da 

  

 Then they hear a rumble on the floor-or-or-or 

 It's the big surprise they're waiting for 

 And all the couples they form a ring 

 For miles around you'll hear them sing 

  

 Drree mopado theedo da-da-da-da 

  

 ----- instrumental break ----- 

  

 Roll it out, roll it out, roll out the barrel 

 Da-da-da da-da da-da da-da-da-da-da 

 Sing a song of good cheer 

 'Cause the whole gang is here 

 Roll it out, roll it out 

 Let's do the beer barrel polka
