hopp, eh la hopp. Er ließ sie tanzen im feirigen Licht und strahlte glicklich im ganzen Gesicht. Eh la hopp, eh la hopp, eh la hopp. Er lachte: "Haha, haha" und machte: "Hoho hoho", ganz sachte: "Haha haha" und rief: "Eh la hopp, eh la hopp eh la hopp, eh la hopp eh la hopp, eh la hopp eh la hopp, eh la hopp." Er warf die sechs Bänder hoch in die Luft eh la hopp, eh la hopp, eh la hopp. Und alles das macht er auf schwindlige Heh; Papa war die Clou von die ganz Soirée. Eh la hopp, eh la hopp, eh la hopp, eh la hopp, eh la hopp eh la hopp, eh la hopp eh la hopp, eh la hopp. Refrain, Lilli Palmer, in the 1954 film Fireworks Papa, like an arrow, jumped up onto the ropes. Alley-oop, alley-oop, alley-oop. He spread his legs apart very wide, jumped high into the air, and stood on his hand. Alley-oop, alley-oop, alley-oop. He laughed, "haha, haha" and went, "hoho, hoho" very gently, "haha, haha" and shouted, "Alley-oop, alley-oop, alley-oop, alley-oop, alley-oop." He rode the ropes very high in the air. Alley-oop, alley-oop, alley-oop. He could do that twelve times, effortlessly. At this, he laughed and was never afraid. Alley-oop, alley-oop, alley-oop, alley-oop, alley-oop, alley-oop, alley-oop. Refrain: Oh, my Papa was a wonderful clown. Oh, my Papa was a great artist. High on the ropes, how wonderful it was to watch! Oh, my Papa was a beautiful man. Oh, how he laughed, his mouth so wide, so red; and his eyes shined like diamonds. Oh, my Papa was a wonderful clown. Oh, my Papa was a great artist. High on the ropes, how wonderful it was to watch! Oh, my Papa was a beautiful man. Then, he threw six ribbons high in the air. Alley-oop, alley-oop, alley-oop. He made them dance in the glowing light, and beamed with happiness all across his face. Alley-oop, alley-oop, alley-oop. He laughed, "haha, haha" and went, "hoho, hoho" very gently, "haha, haha" and shouted, "Alley-oop, alley-oop, alley-oop, alley-oop, alley-oop, alley-oop, alley-oop, alley-oop." Then, he threw six ribbons high in the air. Alley-oop, alley-oop, alley-oop. And he does all of that at dizzying heights, Papa was the highlight of the whole soirée. Alley-oop, alley-oop, alley-oop, alley-oop, alley-oop, alley-oop, alley-oop, alley-oop, alley-oop. Refrain See also List of UK Singles Chart number ones of the
