Adelaide

Lyrics by：Frank Loesser

Composed by：Frank Loesser

Unaccustomed as I am to getting married

I am taking this occasion here to say that

Me and Adelaide are finally naming the day

Though she knows deep in her heart

I'm a phony and I'm a fake

She wants five children to start

Five

Five's a difficult point to make

But Adelaide Adelaide

Everloving Adelaide is taking a chance on me

Taking a chance I'll be respectable and nice

Give up the cards and dice

And go for shoes and rice

So gentlemen deal me out

Do not try to feel me out

I've got no more evenings free

Since Adelaide Adelaide everloving

Adelaide is taking a chance

Talk about your longshots

Taking a chance on me

But Adelaide Adelaide everloving Adelaide

Is taking a chance on him

Taking a chance he'll be respectable and nice

Give up the cards and dice

And go for shoes and rice

So gentlemen deal me out do not try to feel me out

I've got no more evenings free

Since Adelaide Adelaide everloving Adelaide

Is taking a chance

Hahahaha talk about your longshots

Taking a chance

Taking a chance on me
