When the party hit full swing
I saw you come reeling in
You had that six pack in a stranglehold
Now you stagger, now you sway
Why don`t you fall the other way
`Cos I`ve got something here worth more than gold
CHORUS
Don`t sit on my Jimmy Shands
Don`t sit on my Jimmy Shands
They don`t mend with sticky tape and glue
Don`t sit on my Jimmy Shands
Don`t sit on my Jimmy Shands
That`s my very best advice to you
Call me precious I don`t mind
78s are hard to find
You just can`t get the shellac
Since the war
This one`s the Beltona brand
Finest label in the land
They don`t make them like that any more
CHORUS
Darling though you`re twice my size
I don`t mean to patronize
Honey, let me lead you by the hand
Find a lap or find a chair
You can park it anywhere
Just don`t rest your cheeks against my man
CHORUS
No shindig is half complete
Without that famous polka beat
That`s why they invite me, I suppose
Waltzes, Strathspey`s, eightsome reels
Now you know how good it feels
Crank that handle babe, away she goes
CHORUS
