I was strolling through park one day
In merry merry month of may
I was taken by surprise
By a pair of roguish eyes
In a moment my poor heart was stole away

A smile was all she gave to me
(Whistling)
And soon we was happay as could be
(Whistling)

I immediately raised my hat
And finally did remark
I never shall forget
That charmer that I met
That day while strolling in the park

In the good old summertime
In the good old summertime
Strolling through the shady lanes
With your baby mind
You hold her hand and she holds yours
And that's a very good sign
That she's your tootsie wootsie
In the good old summertime

Sweet Rosie O'grady, my beautiful rose
She's my little lady, that everyone knows

I'll be your sweetheart, if you will be mine
All my life, I'll be your valentine
Bluebells are gathered, keep them and be true
When I'm a man my plan, will be to marry you

She's my sweetheart, I'm her beau
I'm his Annie, I'm her Joe
Soon we'll marry, never to part
Little Annie Rooney, is my sweetheart

Casey would waltz with the strawberry blonde
And the band played on
He'd glide 'cross the floor with the girl he adored
And the band played on
But his brain was so loaded it nearly exploded
The poor girl would shake with alarm
He'd ne'er leave the girl with the strawberry curls
And the band played on

Oh Casey would waltz with the strawberry blonde
And the band played on
He'd glide 'cross the floor with the girl he adored
And the band played on
But his brain was so loaded it nearly exploded
The poor girl would shake with alarm
He'd ne'er leave the girl with the strawberry curls
And the band played
Ompah, pah pah
And the band played
Ompah, pah pah
Casey would waltz with the strawberry blonde
And the band played on and on and on.
