SHIRLEY BASSEY
"Makin' Whoopee"
(Walter Donaldson, Gus Kahn)

Every time I hear that march from Lohengrin
I am always on the outside looking in
Maybe that is why I see the funny side
When I see your fallen brother take a bride
Weddings make a lot of people sad
But If you're not the groom, they're not so bad

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 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

Picture a little love nest
Down where the roses cling
Picture the same sweet love nest
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

For makin' whoopee
For makin' whoopee
So don't forget folks,
That's what you get folks, for makin' whoopee
