Oh-me, oh-my, oh-you Whatever shall I do Hallelujah, the question is peculiar I'd give a lot of dough If only I could know The answer to my question Is it yes or is it no
Does your chewing gum lose its flavour On the bedpost overnight If your mother says don't chew it Do you swallow it in spite Can you catch it on your tonsils Can you heave it left and right Does your chewing gum lose its flavour On the bedpost overnight
Here comes a blushing bride The groom is by her side Up to the altar Just as steady as Gibraltar Why, the groom has got the ring And it's such a pretty thing But as he slips it on her finger The choir begins to sing
Does your chewing gum lose its flavour On the bedpost overnight If your mother says don't chew it Do you swallow it in spite Can you catch it on your tonsils Can you heave it left and right Does your chewing gum lose its flavour On the bedpost overnight
Now the nation rise is one To send their only son Up to the White House Yes, the nation's only White House To voice their discontent Unto the Pres-I-dent They pawn the burning question What has swept this continent
[Lonnie speaks:] If tin whistles are made of tin What do they make fog horns out of Boom, boom
Does your chewing gum lose its flavour On the bedpost overnight If your mother says don't chew it Do you swallow it in spite Can you catch it on your tonsils Can you heave it left and right Does your chewing gum lose its flavour On the bedpost overnight
On the bedpost overnight
[Man:] Hello there, I love you and the one who holds you tight
[Lonnie:] Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday Thursday, Friday, Sat'day night
On the bedpost overnight
[Man:] A dollar is a dollar and a dime is a dime
[Lonnie:] He's singin' out the chorus But he hasn't got the time
On the bedpost overnight, yeah
