Oktoberfest

Rebecca Noelle

 

Verse 1

Put on your lederhosen

And dancing shoes

I’ll wear my dirndl

And new lace top

We’ll join the parade into town

Alongside musicians

And horse-drawn carriages

Off to Oktoberfest

 

In the tent, our mugs will overflow

Our plates will fill with sausages

Potato salad, sauerkraut

Strudel, gingerbread

The band will play

We’ll sing along

And laugh and drink

And toast to another Oktoberfest

 

Chorus

Come with me to Oktoberfest

Let’s celebrate the fall

With good food, fine drink, merriment

And cheers to one and all

 

Verse 2

Finger wrestling, pretzel toss

Stein holding and barrel rolling

We’ll play the games

And ride the rides

Hollering from the carousel

Shouting from the ferris wheel

Being kids again

Merrily celebrating Oktoberfest

 

We’ll yodel through the day

And polka through the night

Galloping and spinning

Under autumn stars

Under carnival lights and lanterns

In the embrace of a waltz

We will sway and smile

In the happy glow of Oktoberfest

 

Chorus

Come with me to Oktoberfest

Let’s celebrate the fall

With good food, fine drink, merriment

And cheers to one and all

 

[Instrumental]

 

Chorus

Come with me to Oktoberfest

Let’s celebrate the fall

With good food, fine drink, merriment

And cheers to one and all
