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

[BERT]

The honeymoon in store

Is one that you'll adore

I'm gonna take you for a ride

[ANNIE & BERT]

I'll (You'll) go home and get your panties

You (I'll) go home and get my scanties

And away we'll go

Ooh ooh ooh!

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 ooh ooh!

Off we're gonna shuffle

Shuffle off to Buffalo

[GIRLS]

You'll go home and get your purses

I'll go get my niece and nurses

And away we'll go

Ooh ooh ooh!

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 ooh ooh!

Off we're gonna shuffle

Shuffle off to Buffalo

[MAGGIE JONES]

Matrimony is baloney

She'll be wanting alimony

In a year of so

[ENSEMBLE]

Ooh ooh ooh!

[MAGGIE JONES]

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

[ENSEMBLE]

Ooh ooh ooh!

[MAGGIE JONES]

She'll give him the Shuffle

[MAGGIE JONES & ENSEMBLE]

When they're back from Buffalo

[MAGGIE JONES (ENSEMBLE)]

She was just the farmer's daughter (Ooh ooh ooh)

And the salesman made his sale! (Ooh ooh ooh)

What she got she didn't order, (Ooh ooh ooh)

And you can't return by mail! (Ooh ooh!)

To the chapel nearly got him

With some buttshard in his bottom

How could he say no? (Ooh ooh ooh)

He just had to shuffle

[MAGGIE JONES & ENSEMBLE]

Shuffle off to Buffalo!

[ENSEMBLE]

Ohh!

For a little silver quarter

We can have the pull man porter

Turn the lights down low

Ooh ooh ooh!

Off we're gonna shuffle

How we're gonna shuffle

Shuffle, shuffle, shuffle

Shuffle, shuffle, shuffle

To Buffalo
