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, anything but fussy
But a woman who'll wait 'til the third time around
Head in the clouds, feet on the ground
She's a girl you're glad you found
She's your shipoopi, shipoopi, shipoopi, shipoopi
(The girl is hard to get)
Shipoopi, shipoopi, shipoopi
(But you can't 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-mi-fa-so-la-si-do, si-do-so-fa-mi-re-do)
Squeeze her once when she isn't lookin'
Get a squeeze back, that's fancy cookin'
Once more for a pepper-upper
Never get sore on her way to supper
(Do-re-mi-fa-so-la-si-do, si-do)
A little old Sal was a no girl as anyone could see
Look at her now, she's a go girl who only goes for me
Squeeze her once when she isn't lookin'
Get a squeeze back, that's fancy cookin'
Once more for a pepper-upper
Never get sore on her way to supper
(Do-re-mi-fa-so-la-si-do, si-do)
Shipoopi, shipoopi, shipoopi
(The girl is hard to get)
Shipoopi, shipoopi, shipoopi
(But you can't win her yet)
Shipoopi, shipoopi, shipoopi
(The girl is hard to get)
Shipoopi, shipoopi, shipoopi
(But you can't win her yet)
You can't win her yet
Shipoopi!
