lyrics

If you travel south from New Bremen
Or East from Maria Stein
Don't come looking for Champagne
And don't ever ask for Wine

It's a sleepy town of 3000
till harvest time comes 'round
(R) then it booms to 80,000
and they party till the cows come home (R)

CHORUS
They go to Minster, to Minster
It comes but once a year
Everybody doing the chicken dance
with a two-quart bottle of beer

They to to Minster, to Minster
You can wear lederhosen or pants
(R) but whatever you wear, you aint really there
till you're doing the chicken dance (R)

They travel north from Russia
They travel north from Versailles
You'll see them dancing and drinking
and filling up the aisles

There's plenty of wonderful cooking
Brats and Wurst and All
(R) And until you get to Minster
You've never had a sauerkraut ball (R)

CHORUS

They come east from Fort Recovery
Southwest from Wapakoneta
Everybody knows one weekend a year
Life can't get any better

They travel south from St Marys
Southwest from Kettlersville
(R) You'll never see Oktoberfest quite likes this
Maybe you never will (R)
