Victory Polka Lyrics

Andrews Sisters Victory Polka

The Vict'ry Polka
as performed by
Bing Crosby with
The Andrews Sisters
September 27, 1943
Reached #6 in the charts in 1943


There's going to be a Hallelujah Day
When the boys have all come home to stay
And a million bands begin to play.
We'll be dancing "The Vict'ry Polka."

And when we've lit the torch of liberty
In each blacked out land across the sea
When a man can proudly say 'I'm free'
We'll be dancing "The Vict'ry Polka."

And we will give a mighty cheer
When the ration book is just a souvenir.
And we'll heave a mighty sigh
When each gal can kiss the boy she kissed good-bye.

And they'll come marching down Fifth Avenue
The United Nations in review
When this lovely dream has all come true.
We'll be dancing "The Vict'ry Polka."

Dance, dance, dance "The Vict'ry Polka."
Join, join the merry throng.
Sing, sing, sing "The Vict'ry Polka."
Raise your voices loud and strong.

There's going to be a great Hallelujah Day
When the boys have all come home to stay
And a million bands begin to play.
We'll be dancing "The Vict'ry Polka."

And when we've lit the torch of liberty
In each blacked out land across the sea.
When a man can proudly say 'I'm free'
We'll be dancing "The Vict'ry Polka."

Chorus:
And we will give a mi-mi-mighty cheer
When the ration book is just a souvenir.
And we'll heave a mi-mi-mighty sigh
When each gal can kiss the boy she kissed good-bye.

And they'll come marching down Fifth Avenue
The United Nations in review
When this lovely dream has all come true.
We'll be dancing "The Vict'ry Polka."
We'll be dancing "The Vict'ry Polka."
