I neglected to add the slow part of the dance:

   Een, twee, dree, veer ...
   In d'n Hoppensack,*
   In d'n Hoppensack*
   In d'n Hoppensack* is Füer!

Phonetic:

   ?E.In tvE.I drE.I fE.I3
   ?In: 'hOpm=zak
   ?In: 'hOpm=zak
   ?In: 'hOpm=zak ?Is fy:3

My translation:

   One, two, three, four ...
   The Bag o' Hops,*
   The Bag o' Hops,*
   The Bag o' Hops's* on fire!
___

* I assume it is the name of a pub.
