We shall dance, we shall dance, 
The day we get a chance 
To pay off all the violins of the ball. 
We shall dance, we shall dance, 
The day we get a chance 
To get a dime to buy back our souls. 

We shall dance, we shall sing, 
My dear love, oh my spring 
My love, good days will come 
You‘ll see the corn will grow in spring 
My spring time, my spring time. 

We shall dance, we shall dance, 
The day we get a chance 
To pay off all the violins of the ball. 
We shall dance, we shall stay 
With the children at play, 
Lord I swear when the time comes we‘ll pray. 

We shall dance, we shall sing, 
My dear love, oh my spring, 
My love you‘ll have a house, 
With roof and walls, fire with coal, 
My soul, my soul. 

We shall dance, we shall dance, 
The day we get a chance 
To pay off all the violins of the ball. 
We shall dance, we shall stay 
With the children at play, 
Lord I swear when the time comes we‘ll pray.
