Um-pah-pah-pah!’Oh, the Merry-Go-Round broke downAnd it made the darndest sound,The lights went low, we both said « Oh! »And the Merry-Go-Round went »Um-pah-pah, um-pah-pahUm-pah! Um-pah! Um-pah-pah-pah!’Oh what fun – a wonderful timeFinding love for only a dime.Oh, the Merry-Go-Round broke downBut you don’t see me frownThings turned out fine and now she’s mine -Cause the the Merry-Go-Round went »Um-pah-pah, um-pah-pahUm-pah! Um-pah! Um-pah-pah-pah! »Oh, the Merry-Go-Round broke down.
