Текст песни The Dreadnoughts - Vicki’s Polka

[Verse 1]
At the Raceway Park in Toledo
In the summer of '74
Billy K said I didn't have it in me
So I marched right across the floor
And the band played "Who Stole the Keeshka?"
And your emerald eyes shone bright
And with a wink to Billy K, I turned to you to say
Hey Vicki, let's polka tonight

[Verse 2]
Do you remember the Brighton Beach hotdogs?
Do you remember the Rhode Island Reds?
Remember the night at Kochanski's
When they put that golden crown on your head?
We saw Frankie in old Cincinnati
Underneath those big blue lights
And when your skies were turning grey, I'd turn to you to say
Hey Vicki, let's polka tonight, alright

[Verse 3]
And the years rolled on so sweetly
But the music around us changed
And when our kids felt lonesome and empty
We said "You've only that music to blame"
We knew that fashions rise and fall, dear
But polka will never die
And soon enough they surely knew, they'd be standing before you
Saying Vicki, let's polka tonight

[Verse 4]
Then came the year of our Lord, 2020
We didn't know it would happen so soon
They wouldn't let me say goodbye to you
They wouldn't even let me into the room
And now my days are finally over
And I'm heading for those pearly lights
I'll know I'm in the proper place when I see your pretty place
Hey Vicki, let's polka tonight
