Ieva's Polka

I heard the polka rhythm next door

And it set my soles on fire

Ieva's mom, she watched her daughter

But ieva turned out a liar

No matter what her mother says

As it's time to dance, go around

Ieva she wore a smile on her face

As people wished her luck for the day

Everybody had worked up a sweat

And the violin kept on moaning late

No matter whether it's boiling or not

As it's time to go dance around

Ieva's mom, she slipped away

Inter her chamber to sing a psalm

While ieva and the lad next door

They had trouble keeping clam

No matter what, the old hag says

As it's time to screw around

After the music, the fun began

That's when the pal he messed around

But at home ieva's mom picked up a fight

And ieva she cried her eyes out

No matter what the old lady says

As it's time to go dance around

I told ieva's mom to keep it down

I ain't gonna beat you up, indeed

You had better head for your chamber

And I'll leave you in peace

No matter how gentle I am

As it's time to go dance around

I'm gonna be a hard one to trap

I ain't gonna be a sitting duck

You travel to the east and to the west

But ieva and I won't be out of luck

No matter whether I might be coy

As it's time to go dance around
