Ella Fitzgerald - By Strauss Lyrics

Send "By Strauss" ringtone to your cell

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!"
