The Merry-Go-Round Broke Down
|
Shep Fields/Russ Morgan
|
|
Oh, the Merry-Go-Round broke down
|
And we went round and round
|
Each time t'would miss, we'd steal a kiss
|
And the Merry-Go-Round went
|
"Um-pah-pah, um-pah-pah
|
Um-pah! Um-pah! Um-pah-pah-pah!'
|
Oh, the Merry-Go-Round broke down
|
And it made the darndest sound,
|
The lights went low, we both said "Oh!"
|
And the Merry-Go-Round went
|
"Um-pah-pah, um-pah-pah
|
Um-pah! Um-pah! Um-pah-pah-pah!'
|
Oh what fun - a wonderful time
|
Finding love for only a dime.
|
Oh, the Merry-Go-Round broke down
|
But you don't see me frown
|
Things turned out fine and now she's mine -
|
Cause the the Merry-Go-Round went
|
"Um-pah-pah, um-pah-pah
|
Um-pah! Um-pah! Um-pah-pah-pah!"
|
Oh, the Merry-Go-Round broke down.
