Hungarian Rhapsody |
| Oh what a time we had down by the Danube! |
| Eating our Goulash and drinking our wine |
| Listening to Gypsy bands playing cimbaloms |
| Everyone’s happy and things are just fine |
| Finished our food and got into the wagon |
| To drive 80 miles and then do the show |
| 5 hours later, we’re still busy trucking |
| Banging and bumping; |
| don’t know where to go |
| Oh what a time we had down by the Danube! |
| Eating our Goulash and drinking our wine |
| Listening to Gypsy bands playing cimbaloms |
| Everyone’s happy and things are just fine |
| Got to the gig, although nobody else did |
| Set up the gear and began to play |
| Farmers and soldiers just standing and staring |
| Just didn’t know what to make of the day |
| Oh what a time we had down by the Danube! |
| Eating our Goulash and drinking our wine |
| Listening to Gypsy bands playing cimbaloms |
| Everyone’s happy and things are just fine |
| Finished the last song and made for the exit |
| But the manager man had come up from the sticks |
| He said «why ain’t you dressed like a poofter ensemble |
| Leaping pianos and waving your legs?» |
