Ella Fitzgerald - By Strauss lyrics

Away with the music of broadway Be off with your irving berlin Oh i give no quarter to kern or cole porter And gershwin keeps pounding on tin How can i be civil when hearing this drivel It's only for nightclubbin' souses Oh give me the free 'n' easy waltz that is vienneasy and Go tell the band if they want a hand The waltz must be strauss's Ya, ya ya, give me oom-pa-pah When i want a melody Lilting through the house Then i want a melody By strauss It laughs, it sings, the world is in rhyme Swinging to three-quarter time Let the danube flow along And the fledermauss Keep the wine and give me song By strauss By jove, by jing, by strauss is the thing So i say to ha-cha-cha, heraus! Just give me your oom-pa-pah, by strauss! (bridge) Let the danube flow along And the fledermauss Keep the wine and give me song By strauss By jove, by jing, by strauss is the thing So i say to ha-cha-cha, heraus! Just give me your oom-pa-pah, By strauss!"
