WISCONSIN WALTZ, THE
(Ethwell "Eddie" Hansen)

Written in 1951 and adopted as Wisconsins 
official state waltz in 2001.







Music from heaven throughout the years
The beautiful Wisconsin Waltz
Favorite song of the pioneers
The beautiful Wisconsin Waltz

Song of my heart on that last final day
When it is time to lay me away
One thing I ask is to let them play
The beautiful Wisconsin Waltz

My sweetheart, my complete heart
It’s for you when we dance together
The beautiful Wisconsin Waltz

I remember that September
Before love turned into an ember
We danced to the Wisconsin Waltz

Summer ended, we intended 
That our lives then would both be blended
But somehow our planning got lost

Memory now sings a dream song
A faded love theme song
The beautiful Wisconsin Waltz
