Happy Victory in Japan Day!

There's going to be a Hallelujah Day

When the boys have all come home to stay

And a million bands begin to play.

We'll be dancing "The Vict'ry Polka."

And when we've lit the torch of liberty

In each blacked out land across the sea

When a man can proudly say 'I'm free'

We'll be dancing "The Vict'ry Polka."

 And we will give a mighty cheer

When the ration book is just a souvenir.

And we'll heave a mighty sigh

When each gal can kiss the boy she kissed good-bye.

 And they'll come marching down Fifth Avenue

The United Nations in review

When this lovely dream has all come true.

We'll be dancing "The Vict'ry Polka."

 Dance, dance, dance "The Vict'ry Polka."

Join, join the merry throng.

Sing, sing, sing "The Vict'ry Polka."

Raise your voices loud and strong.

 There's going to be a great Hallelujah Day

When the boys have all come home to stay

And a million bands begin to play.

We'll be dancing "The Vict'ry Polka."

And when we've lit the torch of liberty

In each blacked out land across the sea.

When a man can proudly say 'I'm free'

We'll be dancing "The Vict'ry Polka."

 And we will give a mi-mi-mighty cheer

When the ration book is just a souvenir.

And we'll heave a mi-mi-mighty sigh

When each gal can kiss the boy she kissed good-bye.

And they'll come marching down Fifth Avenue

The United Nations in review

When this lovely dream has all come true.

We'll be dancing "The Vict'ry Polka."

We'll be dancing "The Vict'ry Polka."
