Oh! Baby, Don't We Get along?

Seq - Dr. J.Pitt-Payne. Kar - Bunty Pritchard Jones. Oct 2000.

Married couples battle, single couples fuss,
Oh! ain't it terrible they don't get on like us?

Johnnie lost his Lizzie, Mabel lost her Joe,
but we are still together and go, and go, and go.

'Cause I'm used to your ways, you're used to my ways,
Oh! Baby, don't we get along!

I like what you like, you like what I like,
Oh! Baby, don't we get along!

We have a lot of little quarrels but, then,
we have 'em 'cause it's nice to make up again,

and I say it's my fault, you say it's your fault,
Oh! Baby, don't we get along!

'Cause I like the Moonlight, she likes the moonlight,
Oh! Baby, don't we get along!

I laugh at her jokes, she laughs at my jokes,
Oh! Baby, don't we get along!

We haven't got a lot of money that's true,
but you know what a ukulele can do,

and most ev'ry evening, out on the back porch,
Oh! Baby, don't we get along!

Even if we quarrel, even if we fuss,
we close the windows, dear,
they don't get wise to us.

Talk of Cleopatra, and Mark Anthony,
why they were perfect strangers,
compared to her and me.

'Cause you get a headache, and I get a headache,
Oh! Baby, don't we get along!

You get the measles, so I get the measles,
Oh! Baby, don't we get along!

If you get indigestion, I get it too;
just out of sympathy, I suffer with you.

When I get a breakdown, you go to Brighton,
Oh! Baby, don't we get along!

So I want it my way, we have it your way,
Oh! Baby, don't we get along!

I need a new hat, you get a new hat,
Oh! Baby, don't we get along!

When Christmas comes around dear we never starve,
I buy a turkey, dear, and start in to carve,

And you get the best part, I get the end part,
Oh! Baby, don't we get along!

Married couples battle, single couples fuss,
Oh! ain't it terrible they don't get on like us?

Johnnie lost his Lizzie, Mabel lost her Joe,
but we are still together and go, and go, and go.

'Cause you like your Mother, I like the bulldog,
Oh! Baby, don't we get along!

I laugh at your jokes, you laugh at my jokes
Oh! Baby, don't we get along!

We take the Morris out and go for a ride,
You drive me crazy when you sit by my side,

I act as a chauffeur, but you do the driving,
Oh! Baby, don't we get along!

I go out with my friends, you go with your friends,
Oh! Baby, don't we get along!

I like a play, dear, you cabaret, dear,
Oh! Baby, don't we get along!

I know I'm true to you and you're true to me,
We don't do anything that people can see,

And so in the meantime, and in between time,
Oh! Baby, don't we get along!
