Ronnie Cahute

Слова: Ron Cahute & Ihor Baczynskyj

Мелодія: "Johnny B. Goode" - Chuck Berry

Way down in west Toronto

With the boys so keen

Had a magic squeezebox

That he played real mean

Sang that Ukie music that

He loved so well

Choked those freakin' bellows

Like a bat outta hell

He'd be the king of polka

There'd be no dispute

There'll never be a player

Quite like Ronnie Cahute

Приспів:

Go go

Go Ronnie go go go (4)

Ronnie Cahute

Rocket Ronnie's rhythms echoed through the land

Soon he'd be the leader of the Burya band

Playing wakes and weddings and bar mitztvahs too

Ronnie sang in Yiddish better than they do

Portuguese, Italian, and совєцький too

There'd never be a player

Quite like Ronnie Cahute

Приспів.

Now he has a studio on Walkers Line

Four kids and a wife and he's doin' fine

Making music history with other cats

Never had a ?????????

He'll feed you pie

And tell you a joke

Then watch him make that squeezebox croak

Приспів.
