Makin' Whoopee (Live 2011)

Another bride, another June

Another sunny honeymoon

Another season, another reason

For making whoopee

You get some shoes, a little rice

The groom's so 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 that same sweet love nest

Just think what a year will 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 making whoopee

Another year, maybe less

What's this I hear? Well, can't you guess?

She feels neglected and he's suspected

For making whoop—, whoops

She sits alone most every night

He doesn't call her, he doesn't write

He says he's busy but she says, "Is he?"

He's making whoopee

Now he doesn't make much money

Only five thousand per

And some judge who thinks he's funny says

He'll pay six to her

He says, "Now judge, suppose I fail?"

The judge says, "Jump right into jail

You better keep her, I think it's cheaper

Than making whoopee"

Oh, it's a whole lot cheaper

Than making whoopee
