Shipoopi (from "The Music Man") Lyrics
Shipoopi - Iggie Wolfington/Robert Preston
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 you're glad you found
She's your 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 make for certain
Once more in the flower garden
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 looking
Get a squeeze back that's fancy cooking
Once more for a pepper-upper
Never get sore on her way to supper
Do re me fa sol la si
Do si do
Little old sal was a no gal
As anyone could see
Look it her now she's a go gal
Who only goes for me
Squeeze her once when she isn't looking
Get a squeeze back that's fancy cooking
Once more for a pepper-upper
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
