Irony of "The Beer Barrel Polka"

Failing to mention that I am putting together a CD of family favorite songs....I found out that my maternal great-grandfather's favorite song was "The Beer Barrel Polka".
As I listened to it, I realized it was the same song I would dance to when I was a little girl.

My paternal grandparents owned a bar....and I would get on the bar and dance with my piggy bank for tips.

I recall my favorite songs were "The Beer Barrel Polka" and "Bad, Bad Leroy Brown"
There was a legacy to my music choices.

I have no idea what to say to this one. Yes, I do, why didn't you dance on the bar last weekend--Don would have loved that.
