There once was a town called Ballbarrybaroo
The people who lived there had only one shoe
This made it quite hard to go dancing you see
Their poor aching toes were as blue as could be
Each time that their partner would shuffle or slide
The shoe on their foot wasn’t on the right side
And their poor little toes that were open and bare
Got stepped on each time that the music would blare
Then into the town came a stranger one day
And he helped the Ballbarrybaroosers this way
The next time they gathered inside for a dance
He saw what the problem was there at a glance
The stranger then had them remove their one shoe
And dance in their socks for a number or two
The Ballbarrybaroosers thought this was quite neat
To dance all about without hurting their feet
And that dearest friend’s how the sock hop was born
In Ballbarrybaroo on a Saturday morn
Now surely you would not doubt all that I say
For it truly did happen exactly that way
