Lyrics

Another bride, another June
Another sunny honeymoon
Another season, another reason
For makin' whoopee
A lot of shoes, a lot of rice
The groom is nervous, he answers twice
It's really killing that he's so willing
To make whoopee
Picture a little love nest
Down where the roses cling
Picture the same sweet love nest
Think what a year can bring
He's washin' dishes and baby clothes
He's so ambitious, he even sews
So don't forget folks
That's what you get folks
For makin' whoopee
Another year or maybe less
What's this I hear?
Well, can't you guess?
She feels neglected
And he's suspected of makin' whoopee
She sits alone most every night
He doesn't phone her, he doesn't write
She says he's busy then she says, "Is he?"
He's makin' whoopee
He doesn't make much money
Only five thousand per
Some judge who thinks he's funny
Says, "You pay six to her"
And he says, "Judge, suppose I fail?"
The judge says, "Budge, right into jail"
You'd better keep her
I think it's cheaper
Than makin' whoopee
Than makin' whoopee
Than makin' whoopee
