Dinah Washington - Makin' Whoopee lyrics
Your rating:
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 killin' That he's so willin' to make whoopee! Picture a little love-nest, Down where the roses cling, Picture the same sweet lovenest, Think what a year can bring. He's washing dishes And baby clothes He's so ambitious He even sews But 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 He says he's "busy" But she says "is he?" He's Makin' Whoopee! He doesn't make much money Only a five-thousand per Some judge, who thinks he's funny Told him he got to 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 Makin' Whoopee!!"
