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!
