( i'm in love with the girl with the golden, Can't live without the girl with the golden . . . braids! ) I saw a gal with golden hair Dancin' as i played Never saw a gal so fair As the girl with the golden braids! I was travellin' with a band, Came to town and stayed Knew i'd have to seek the hand Of the girl with the golden braids! Oh! . . . dance girl, dance an' sway, Dance an' steal my heart away, So many fellas stand in line But i knew you'd be mine! Yes, you'd be mine! Knew i had to take a chance, So i made a trade Gave my fiddle for a dance With the girl with the golden braids Now i'm thru forever more, Roamin' never paid Found that life that i adore With the girl with the golden braids! Oh! . . . dance girl, dance an' sway, Dance an' steal my heart away, So many fellas stand in line But i knew you'd be mine! Oh! . . . you'd be mine! < instrumental break > Dance girl, dance an' sway, Dance an' steal my heart away, So many fellas stand in line But i knew you'd be mine! You'd be mine! Now the boys are talkin' of My last serenade Lucky me, i'm so in love With the girl with the golden braids! Ever since that night in june, Life's a rosy shade, Dancin' on my honeymoon With the gal with the golden braids! Oh! . . . dance girl, dance an' sway, Dance an' steal my heart away, So many fellas stand in line But i knew you'd be mine! Dance girl, dance an' sway, Dance an' steal my heart away, So many fellas stand in line But i knew you'd be mine! Yes . . . i knew you'd be mine!
