Makin' Whoopee
Dr. John: Another bride, another groom
Another sunny honeymoon
Another season, another reason
For makin' whoopee
Rickie Lee Jones: A lotta shoes, a lotta rice
The groom is nervous,
He answers twice
It's really killin' that he's so willin'
For makin' whoopee
Dr. John: It's just your little love nest,
Down where the roses swing
It's still that same sweet love nest
That ain't what the years can bring
Rickie Lee Jones: He's washing dishes and baby clothes
He's so ambitious he even sews
Dr. John: So don't forget folks
That's what you get folks
For makin' whoopee
(musical break)
Rickie Lee Jones: Another year or maybe less
What's this I hear?
Well, can't you guess?
She feels neglected
And he's suspected
Of makin' whoopee
Dr. John: She sits alone most every night
He doesn't phone, he doesn't write
He says he's busy
And she says ...
Rickie Lee Jones: Is he?
Dr. John: He's makin' whoopee
He doesn't make much money
Only five thousands bucks
Some judge he thinks he's funny
Says you pay six to her
Now he says judge, suppose I fail?
Judge says Bud, rot in jail!
You better keep her
Rickie Lee Jones: Yeah, I think it's cheaper
Dr. John: Than makin whoopee
Rickie Lee Jones: Than makin' whoopee
Dr. John: Than makin' whoppee, hummmm
Cute
