A year or so back, I made a reasonably thorough search on this song for someone. Don't know where all my original work went to, but here is just a bit of it.

"Blue Skirt Waltz" came to the attention of Frank Yankovic while he was reviewing a catalog of Bohemian music sent to him by John Mills of Mills Publishing Company. In it, the only tune that Frank found appealing was "Cervenou Sukynku," or, loosely translated, "Red Skirt Waltz." Furthermore, the song needed lyrics. At that point, Yankovic and Mills turned to one of America's finest lyricists, Mitchell Parish of " Stardust" and "Sleighride" fame, who changed "red" to "blue" and created the story of the skirt with the more familiar hue.

If you want the full story of how The Blue Skirt Waltz came to be, then go here. Above excerpt taken from this site. RECOMMENDED


And thanks to this one
CERVENA SUKYNKA
(Red Skirt Waltz)
Vaclav Blaha (I added the credit)

Kdyz byla jsem malicka
A do skoly chodivala
Vzdy mne moje maticka
Do saticek oblekala

Cervena sukynka musela byt
Bez ni se do skoly nedalo jit
Dnes takovou zase mam
A nejradsi ji nosivam

Refrain:
Tu cervenou sukynku,
Nejradsi    ze vsech mam,
Dnes vecer ji   obleknu
Az prides    chlapce knam
Sukynku pekne    lemovanou
Zdobenou faldickama
At' nikdy neuvadne
Laska mezi nama
