When The Balalaikas Play

George Millar

The people down in Kyiv they like to dance and sing
It's hard to hold them back when the balalaikas ring
When the music plays it always brings a smile
It lists the spirits high if only for awhile

Hey, hey, hey, let me hear your balalaikas play
Hey, hey, we'll dance the night away
Hey, hey, hey, when I hear your balalaikas play
Hey, hey, we'll dance the night away

The mood is always up at Independence Square
Streets are filled with laughter and music fills the air
If you want some horilka there's taverns there galore
Comrades like to gather and they make the rafters roar

Hey, hey, hey, let me hear your balalaikas play
Hey, hey, we'll dance the night away
Hey, hey, hey, when I hear your balalaikas play
Hey, hey, we'll dance the night away

When the thunder roars freedom awakes
Ukraine might bend but she'll never ever break
She'll never give in and she won't be swayed
'Till peace comes where the balalaikas play

Hey, hey, hey, let me hear your balalaikas play
Hey, hey, we'll dance the night away
Hey, hey, hey, when I hear your balalaikas play
Hey, hey, we'll dance the night away

If you can't dance or you can't sing
No worries Kohanny don't do anything
Just sway to the rhythm and drift away
It's magic when the balalaika's play

Hey, hey, hey, let me hear your balalaikas play
Hey, hey, we'll dance the night away
Hey, hey, hey, when I hear your balalaikas play
Hey, hey, we'll dance the night away

The people down in Kyiv they like to dance and sing
It's hard to hold them back when the balalaika's ring
The music will survive forever and a day
The spirit comes alive when the balalaikas play

Hey, hey, hey, let me hear your balalaikas play
Hey, hey, we'll dance the night away
Hey, hey, hey, when I hear your balalaikas play
Hey, hey, we'll dance the night away
