[MARACZEK]
Young, strong ... oh, I was something in days gone by
With some girl who just happened to catch my eye
Slim, straight, light on my feet
Shoes just skimming the ground
One-two-three, one-two-three, follow the beat
Around, around, around
All night circling the floor
'Til dawn lit up the sky
No one younger than I
In days gone by

(Spoken)
But then I met Mrs. Maraczek and ever since I've danced only with her. I bet you think that's incredible

[GEORG, spoken]
No! Mrs. Maraczek is a beautiful woman

[MARACZEK]
Young, strong ... oh, I was something in days gone by

[GEORG, spoken]
Oh, the fact is I'm a terrible dancer

[MARACZEK]
With some girl who just happened to catch my eye
