Makin' Whoopee Lyrics
Another bride, another June
Another sunny honeymoon
Another season, another reason
For makin' whoopeeA lot of shoes, a lot of rice
The groom is nervous, he answers twice
Its really killin' that he's so willin'
To make whoopeePicture a little love nest
Down where the roses cling
Picture the same sweet love nest
Think what a year can bringHe's washin' dishes and baby clothes
He's so ambitious he even sews
But don't forget folks,
That's what you get folks, for makin' whoopeeHe doesn't make much money
Five thousand dollars per;
Some judge who thinks he's funny
Says, "You pay six to her."He says, "Now judge, suppose I fail?"
The judge says, "Budge, right into jail.
You'd better keep her
I think it's cheaper
Than making whoopee."
