I need the words for three Polish Polkas
-
Can someone please send me the words for three polkas..........I play with a Polka group in eastern North Carolina!
Red Shoes Polka Hey Caviler Polka and Return to Me Polka
Are there any polka musicians that may have moved to eastern NC from up north that may be interested in playing a little on weekends? Give me a call or email me (910) 382-3840 kubicaedward@yahoo.com
I moved here from western Penna in 2000..........Played and recorded with Lil John and the Music Tones for over 20 years..play trumpet, bass and all vocals (including Polish and Slovak) -
The words to Hey Cavalier and Return to Me ( listed there by the Polish title, Zielona Traweczka ---See the List of titles on top of the first page) can be found , along with hundreds of other titles, on the great site , ConcertinaMusic.com . ^^
Here are the words to "Red Shoes" :
Czerwone buciki, czerwone kupila, w czerwonych bucikach bedzie tancowala --Czerwone buciki, czerwone guziki, tak sobie tan'cuja, nawet bez muzyki.
Zagraj mi muzyczko, jakes' dawniej grala--W czerwonych bucikach bedzie tan'cowala--Bede tan'cowala cala, nocke cala,
W czerwonych bucikach no'z'ki mnie nie bola, .
Czerwone buciki z no'z'ek sobie zdje,la --Bedzie szla do domu , by je nie zrosila.
Czerwone buciki do skrzyni schowala, by je na taneczkach na drugi raz miala.
To check the pronunciation , there's a great video of the original by Marysia Data on You Tube ---as well, no doubt, as good versions of the others ( probably by Marion Lush ( Cavalier ) and others, and Zielona Traweczka/Return to Me ---Stephanie does it well, as does Lil Wally, of course.
Enjoy--and keep spreading that "Polka Joy" down in the Carolinas. ^
