"Shipoopi" Lyrics

Now 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've made for certain
Once more in the flower garden
She will never get sore if you beg her pardon

(Do re me fa so la si, do si la sol 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 sol la si do, si do)

Now little ol' Sal was a no-gal, as anyone could see
Lookit 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 sol la si do, si do)

Shipoopi, Shipoopi, Shipoopi (The girl who's hard to get)
Shipoopi, Shipoopi, Shipoopi (But you can win her yet)

(Shipoopi, Shipoopi, Shipoopi, the girl who's hard to get
Shipoopi, Shipoopi, Shipoopi, but you can win her yet
You can win her yet
Shipoopi)
