Bette Midler - If Momma Was Married lyrics

Louise I wish Momma would marry a plain man so we could all be together... If Momma was married We'd live in a house As private as private can be Just Momma, three ducks, five canaries, A mouse, two monkeys, one father, six turtles And me... If Momma was married June If Momma was married I'd jump in the air And give all my toe shoes to you I'd get all those hair ribbons Out of my hair And once and for all I'd get Momma out too... If Momma was married Louise momma grt ot your white dress You've done it before June Without much success! Both Momma, God speed and God bless We're not keeping score What's one more or less Oh, Momma, say: yes And waltz down the aisle While you may Louise I'll gladly support you

I'll even escort you... June And I'd gladly give you away Both Oh,. Momma, get married today! June If Momma was married there wouldn't be anymore: "Let me entertain you, let me make you smile! I would do some kicks!" Louise "I would do some tricks!" June Sing out, Louise! Louise Smile, baby! Momma, please take our advice We aren't The Lunts June I'm not Fanny Brice Both Momma, we'll buy you the rice If only this once You wouldn't think twice It could be so nice If Momma got married to stay Louise But Momma gets married June And... Louise Married June And... Louise Married Both And never gets carried away Oh, Momma... Oh, Momma... Oh, Momma... Get married today!
