Roll back the carpet
Kick off your shoes
Take a turn around the floor
And dance away your blues
These are the happy times
My memory still recalls
When grandma sang
And grandpa took the fiddle from the wall
Mom and dad would sweetly sing
In perfect harmony
Friends would gather 'round the fire
So many there I'd see
Whoa, happy days and happy nights
My memory still recalls
When grandma sang
And grandpa took the fiddle from the wall
Years may come, and years may go
Memories still stay clear
But when I think of mom and dad
I sometimes shed a tear
All those happy times we had
Soon makes me want to smile
I close my eyes and drift back then
For just a little while
I watch them dance around the floor
And listen to them sing
Friends would stand and clap their hands
And some of them joined in
Whoa, happy days and happy nights
My memory still recalls
When grandma sang
And grandpa took the fiddle from the wall
Roll back the carpet
Kick off your shoes
Take a turn around the floor
And dance away your blues
These are the happy times
My memory still recalls
When grandma sang
And grandpa took the fiddle from the wall
Mom and dad would sweetly sing
In perfect harmony
Friends would gather 'round the fire
So many there I'd see
Whoa, happy days and happy nights
My memory still recalls
When grandma sang
And grandpa took his fiddle from the wall
Here we go!
