Written:Walter Donaldson/Gus Kahn | |
Another bride, Another June | |
Another sunny honeymoon | |
Another season, Another reason | |
To make whoopee | |
A lot of shoes, a lot of rice | |
The groom is nervous, uhh, he answers twice | |
Its really killin', the boy's so willin' | |
To make whoopee, whoopee | |
Picture a little love nest, yeah | |
Down where the roses cling | |
Picture that same sweet love nest | |
See what a year can bring | |
I tell you the boy's washin' dishes 'n, baby clothes | |
He's so ambitious, ooh, I tell you he sews | |
Its really killin', the boy's so willin' | |
To make whoopee, whoopee | |
You see, I don't make much money | |
Only five, uh-uh, thousand per | |
And some judge who thinks he's funny | |
Tells me I got to pay six to her | |
I said now judge, suppose I fail? | |
The judge says, 'Ray, son, son, right on into jail. | |
Ah, you better keep her. I think it's cheaper.' | |
[spoken] You know what I've been doin', don't you? | |
[crowd goes wild] |
