Songtext
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 'til 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't win her yet
Waltz her once just to raise the curtain
Walk around twice and you make for certain
Once more in the flower gardens
She will never get sore if you beg her pardon
Do re mi fa so la si do
Si la sol fa mi re do
Squeeze her once when she isn't lookin'
You get a squeeze back, that's fine she's cookin'
Once more for a pepper-upper
She will never get sore on her way to supper
Do re mi fa so la si do
Si do
Now little old Sam was 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'
You get a squeeze back, that's fine she's cookin'
Once more for a pepper-upper
She will never get sore on her way to supper
Do re mi fa so la si do
Si do
Shipoopi, Shipoopi, Shipoopi
The girl who's hard to get
Shipoopi, Shipoopi, Shipoopi
But you can't win her yet
Shipoopi, Shipoopi, Shipoopi
The girl who's hard to get
Shipoopi, Shipoopi, Shipoopi
But you can't win her yet
You can't win her yet
Shipoopi!
