Another year or maybe less
what’s this I hear? Well you can’t you guess
She feels neglected and he’s suspected
of makin’ whoopee
She sits alone most every night
He doesn’t phone her he doesn’t write
he says he’s busy but she say’s “is he?”
He’s makin’ whoopee
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 budge right into jail
you better keep her i think it’s cheeper
then makeing whoopee
you better keep her
I know it’s cheaper than makin’ whoopee
