C F G
C F
Another bride Another June
C F
Another sunny honeymoon
C F
Another season, another reason
C F G
For makin' whoopee
C F
A lot of shoes, a lot of rice
C F
The groom is nervous he answers twice
C F
It's really killin' that he's so willin'
C F G
To make whoopee
Gm C
Picture a little love nest
Gm C
Down where the roses cling
Gm C
Picture the same sweet love nest
F G
Think what a year can bring
C F
He's washing dishes and baby clothes
C F
He's so ambitious he even sews
C F
But don't forget folks that's what you get folks
C F G
For makin' whoopee
C F
Another year or maybe less
C F
What's this I hear? Well can't you guess?
C F
She fells neglected and he's suspected
C F G
Of makin' whoopee
C F
She sits alone most every night
C F
He doesn't phone her he doesn't write
C F
He says he's busy but she say's "is he?"
C F G
He's makin' whoopee
Gm C
He doesn't make much money
Gm C
Only five thousand per
Gm C
Some judge who thinks he's funny
F G
Says you'll pay six to her
C F
He says now judge suppose I fail
C F
The judge says budge right into jail
C F
You better keep her I think it's cheaper
C F C
Than makin' whoopee
Great song!
Enjoy!
