(From the 1946 movie Easy to Wed) (Sung by Virginia Rees) When we do the Continental Polka, Just enough of every ruffle catches your eye. And when we do the Continental Polka, Every heart of every daughter snatches your eye. As he hops along each cop along the main street Pleased to think you take a gander at the show Though they cheer us on they fear us on the main street. Cause they don't know just how far we're gonna go Come and do the Continental Polka, You will see the smartest people learning the field And if you try the Continental Polka, You will jump on your little old toe and heel Roll like a little old Ferris wheel Fast like a little old circus seal Books like a little old pair of steel There's nothing left that makes you shake a babe Like the Continental Polka can. Come and do the Continental Polka, You will meet the most elite From here to Bombay And if you try the Continental Polka, You will shop with the little old gift bye a. Kick while your little old cares away Dance with the little old break up date Folks like a little old pair of spades There's nothing left that makes you shake a fan shake a fan Like the infinitival polka, the sentimental polka, The daughters in the polka can.
