English[]
Get ready everybody it's Hoop Dee Doo
Wiggly Polka time
Hoop Dee Doo, Hoop Dee Doo
I hear a polka and my troubles are through
Hoop Dee Doo, Hoop Dee Dee
This kind of music is like heaven to me
Hoop Dee Doo, Hoop Dee Doo
It's got me higher than a kite
Hand me down me soup and fish,
I am gonna get my wish
Hoop Dee doin' it tonight
When there's a trumpet blowing,
Ra ta ta ta da
I get a thrill, Woopee, I always will
(Jeff)
When there's an old accordion
stretching out a mile
I'll always smile, woo-hooh,
because that's my style
(Here comes Greg)
When they fiddle in the middle it really is a riddle
how they play a tune so sweet,
Play the tune so sweet that I could die
(Murray)
Oh lead me to the floor and hear me yell for more
I'm a Hoop Dee doin' kind of guy
Hoop Dee Doo, Hoop Dee Doo
Hoop Dee Doo, Hoop Dee Dee
Hoop Dee Doo, Hoop Dee Doo
Hoop Dee doin' it tonight
When there's a trumpet blowing, Ra ta ta ta da
I get a thrill, ha ha, I always will (woo-hooh)
(Jeff!)
When there's an old accordion stretching
out a mile,
I'll always smile, ha ha, because that's my style
(Greg!)
When they fiddle in the middle, it really is a riddle
how they play a tune so sweet,
Play a tune so sweet that I could die
(Here comes Murray!)
Oh lead me to the floor and hear me yell for more
Because I'm a Hoop Dee doin' kind of guy
Hoop Dee Doo, Hoop Dee Doo
I hear a polka and my troubles are through
Hoop Dee Doo, Hoop Dee Dee
This kind of music is like heaven to me
Hoop Dee Doo, Hoop Dee Doo
It's got me higher than a kite
Hand me down me soup and fish
I am gonna get my wish
Hoop Dee doin' it with all of my might
I'm in clover
I'm in the mood
When I'm dancing, give me room
Hoop Dee doin' it, Hoop Dee doin' it,
Hoop Dee doin' it tonight
Hoop Dee!

Prepárense todos, es Hoop Dee Doo
Hora de la polca ondulante
Aro Dee Doo, Aro Dee Doo
Escucho una polca y mis problemas terminaron
Aro Dee Doo, Aro Dee Dee
Este tipo de música es como el cielo para mí.
Aro Dee Doo, Aro Dee Doo
Me tiene más alto que una cometa
Pásame sopa y pescado,
voy a conseguir mi deseo
Hoop Dee haciéndolo esta noche
Cuando suena una trompeta,
Ra ta ta ta da
Me emociono, Woopee, siempre lo haré
(Jeff)
Cuando hay un viejo acordeón
extendiéndose una milla
Siempre sonreiré, woo-hooh,
porque ese es mi estilo
(Aquí viene Greg)
Cuando juegan en el medio, realmente es un acertijo.
cómo tocan una melodía tan dulce,
Toca la melodía tan dulce que podría morir
(Murray)
Oh, llévame al suelo y escúchame gritar por más
Soy un Hoop Dee haciendo tipo de chico
Aro Dee Doo, Aro Dee Doo
Aro Dee Doo, Aro Dee Dee
Aro Dee Doo, Aro Dee Doo
Hoop Dee haciéndolo esta noche
Cuando suena una trompeta, Ra ta ta ta da
Me emociono, ja, ja, siempre lo haré (woo-hooh)
(Jeff!)
Cuando hay un viejo acordeón que se estira
fuera de una milla,
Siempre sonreiré, ja, ja, porque ese es mi estilo
(¡Greg!)
Cuando juegan en el medio, realmente es un acertijo.
cómo tocan una melodía tan dulce,
Toca una melodía tan dulce que podría morir
(¡Aquí viene Murray!)
Oh, llévame al suelo y escúchame gritar por más
Porque soy un tipo de Hoop Dee haciendo
Aro Dee Doo, Aro Dee Doo
Escucho una polca y mis problemas terminaron
Aro Dee Doo, Aro Dee Dee
Este tipo de música es como el cielo para mí.
Aro Dee Doo, Aro Dee Doo
Me tiene más alto que una cometa
Pásame sopa y pescado
voy a conseguir mi deseo
Hoop Dee haciéndolo con todas mis fuerzas
estoy en trébol
Estoy de humor
Cuando estoy bailando, dame espacio
Hoop Dee haciéndolo, Hoop Dee haciéndolo,
Hoop Dee haciéndolo esta noche
Hoop Dee!
