originally released on Ball of Wax 58: The Ball of Wax Winter Spectacular 11.20.19

lyrics

well I used to love you
but I swear I love you more now
I used to love you
but I swear I love you more now

let's move to Wisconsin
where we'll never grow old
we'll die young and pickled
in the beautiful cold

and all our friends
will drive off the side of the road*
let's move to Wisconsin
and we'll never grow old

oh mother of Jesus
I don't want to grow old
oh mother of Jesus
I don't want to die cold

now I'm not yet 40
but I'm still half a man
and you're twice a woman
the way you fall out of my hands

let's get down and dirty
I'll be your filthy old man
let's get down and dirty
I'm your filthy old man

let's get down and dirty
I'm your filthy old man
let's get down and dirty
I'm your filthy old man

come on dance for me
dance for me
put your feet in the air
we'll do the old Wisconsin Polka
put some sweat into your hair

come on dance for me
dance for me
put your feet in the air*
we'll do the old Wisconsin Polka
get some sweat into your hair*

come on dance for me
dance for me
dance all 'round the room*
dance for me
dance for me
I'm looking at you*

just dance
dance for me
put your feet in the air*
do that old Wisconsin Polka
ain't no reason to be scared*

come on dance for me
dance for me
put your feet in the air*
we'll do the old Wisconsin Polka
get some sweat into your hair*

oh mother of Jesus
I don't want to grow old
oh mother of Jesus
I don't want to die cold

come on dance for me
dance for me
and die in the beautiful cold*
do the ol' Wisconsin Polka
and we don't ever grow old*
