Doo Whacka Do Lyrics - It's Entertainment! - Celtic Thunder

I've been playing some old records 

That I found in Grandpa's trunk 

Beside a wind-up gramophone 

Beneath a pile of junk 

And in that dusty attic 

I enjoyed a music show 

Listening to the melodies 

Of eighty years ago 

Doo wacka doo wacka doo wacka doo wacka doo 

The band would play 

Doo wacka doo wacka doo wacka doo wacka doo 

They'd danced the night away 

I long for all the magic 

And the days of cabaret 

Bring back those good old melodies of yesterday 

Bring back those good old melodies of yesterday

Ariana Grande Adds Her Own Verse To "Last Christmas" 

In my youth, I studied music 

And it taught me how to sing 

"Bella signora" 

They took me to the opera 

And I loved that kind of thing 

But then I'd listen to the stories 

That my grandpa used to tell 

About the Roaring Twenties 

And the songs he knew so well 

Doo wacka doo wacka doo wacka doo wacka doo 

The band would play 

Doo wacka doo wacka doo wacka doo wacka doo 

They'd danced the night away 

I long for all the magic 

And the days of cabaret 

Bring back those good old melodies of yesterday 

Bring back those good old melodies of yesterday

Then he'd talk about the flappers 

And the way they used to dance 

About the bootleg liquor 

And the ballrooms of romance 

Then, later, in the movies 

There's dancing everywhere 

My grandpa said he dreamed 

That he could move like Fred Astaire 

Oh, doo wacka doo wacka doo wacka doo wacka doo 

The band would play 

Doo wacka doo wacka doo wacka doo wacka doo 

They'd danced the night away 

I long for all the magic 

And the days of cabaret 

Bring back those good old melodies of yesterday 

Bring back those good old melodies of yesterday
