Irving Berlin Lyrics
Finale: What's This We Hear? Lyrics
[Louisianans:]
What's this we hear?
Please make it clear
Are we to understand a wedding is near?
[Jim?:]
Congratulations are in order
She's in love and her heart is gone
[Marina:]
I met a wonderful man
That's how it began
[Louisianans:]
Proving sex, S-E-X, marches on
[Loganberry:]
I don't know just what happened in that private dining room
I entered as a Senator and came out as a groom
[Marina:]
We were two lonely hearts beating as one
[Loganberry:]
Being mis'rable is oh! such a lot of fun
[Jim:]
I hate the lies you told to me
The bill of goods you sold to me
I hate the things that make you untrue
I hate your last goodbye, I honest I do
[Marina:]
Outside of that, I love you
[Loganberry:]
Ev'rybody drink with me, drink with me
Under the table come sink with me
Very happy am I
And I wish I knew why
[Louisianans:]
We'll be glad to drink with you, drink with you
[Jim?:]
A toast to the bride and groom
[Louisianans:]
Louisiana purchase, I'll tell you what it means
It means I'd like to sell you New Orleans
