IRVING BERLIN lyrics - Finale: What's This We Hear?



[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
