Shipoopi lyrics

This calls for a victory tune...

Well, a woman who'll kiss on the very first date

Is usually a hussy

And a woman who'll kiss on the second time out

Is anything but fussy

But a woman who'll wait till the third time around

Head in the clouds, feet on the ground

She's the girl he's glad he's found

She's his shipoopi

Shipoopi, shipoopi, shipoopi

(The girl who's hard to get)

Shipoopi, shipoopi, shipoopi

(But you can win her yet)

Walk her once just to raise the curtain

Walk around twice and you made for certain

Once more in the flower garden

She will never get sore if you beg her pardon

Do re mi fa so la si do

Si la so fa mi re do

Squeeze her once, when she isn't lookin'

If you get a squeeze back, that's fancy cookin'

Once more for a pepper-upper

She will never get sore on her way to supper

Do re me fa so la si do

Si do

Now little ol' Sal is a no-gal

As anyone could see

Look at her now, she's a go-gal

Who only goes for me

Squeeze her once, when she isn't lookin'

If you get a squeeze back, that's fancy cookin'

Once more for a pepper-upper

She will never get sore on her way to supper

Do re me fa so la si do

Si do

Shipoopi, shipoopi, shipoopi

(The girl who's hard to get)

Shipoopi, shipoopi, shipoopi

(But you can win her yet)

(interlude)

No! No! (spoken)

Shipoopi, shipoopi, shipoopi

The girl who's hard to get

Shipoopi, shipoopi, shipoopi

But you can win her yet, shipoopi

You can win her yet,

Shipoopi

Alright!
