Makin' Whoopee - Nat Adderley/Jimmy Cobb
Another bride another groom
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 love nest
And think what a year can bring
He's washin' 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 maybe less
What's this I hear well can you guess
She feels neglected and he's suspected
Of makin' whoopie
She sits alone most every night
He doesn't phone her he doesn't write
He says he's busy she says is he
He's makin' whoopie
He doesn't make much money
Only five thousand per
Some judge who thinks he's funny
Says you'll pay six to her
He says now judge suppose I fail
The judge says you got aright into jail
You'd better keep her I think it's cheaper
For makin' whoopie
It's cheaper than makin' whoopie
