Miscellaneous |
Shuffle Off To Buffalo |
Bert: |
Now that we have had the rice and flowers, |
The knot is tied; |
Annie: |
I can visu’lize such happy hours, |
Close by your side. |
The honeymoon in store |
Is one that you’ll adore, |
I’m gonna take you for a ride. |
Annie, Bert, Maggie and Girls: |
I’ll (You'll) go home and get my panties, |
You (I'll) go home and get your scanties, |
And away we’ll go. |
Mm mm mm… |
Off we’re gonna shuffle, |
Shuffle off to Buffalo. |
To Niag’ra in a sleeper, |
There’s no honeymoon that’s cheaper, |
And the train goes slow. |
Ooh ooh ooh! |
Off, we’re gonna shuffle, |
Shuffle off to Buffalo. |
Someday, the stork may pay a visit |
And leave a little souvenir. |
Just a little cute «what is it,» |
But we’ll discuss that later, dear. |
For a little silver quarter, |
We can have the pull man porter |
Turn the lights down low. |
Ooh! |
Off we’re gonna shuffle, |
Shuffle off to Buffalo. |
You’ll go home and get your purses, |
I’ll go get my niece and nurses, |
And away we’ll go. |
Mm mm mm… |
Off we’re gonna shuffle, |
Shuffle off to Buffalo. |
To Niag’ra in a sleeper, |
There’s no honeymoon that’s cheaper, |
And the train goes slow. |
Ooh ooh ooh! |
Off, we’re gonna shuffle, |
Shuffle off to Buffalo. |
Someday, the stork may pay a visit |
And leave a little souvenir. |
Just a little cute «what is it,» |
But we’ll discuss that later, dear. |
For a little silver quarter, |
We can have the pull man porter |
Turn the lights down low. |
Ooh! |
Off we’re gonna shuffle, |
Shuffle off to Buffalo. |
Matrimony is baloney |
She’ll be wanting alimony |
In a year of so |
Still they go and shuffle |
Shuffle Off to Buffalo |
When she knows as much as we know |
She’ll be on her way to Reno |
While he still has dough |
She’ll give him the Shuffle |
When they’re back from Buffalo |
