BACHELOR DINNER SONG
Written for: The Belle Of New York (1952)

Fred Astaire & Studio Chorus


Chorus:

Who wants to kiss the bride-groom
On his last night out?
Next time you bring champagne on,
I'll have the ball and chain on;
Yes, ladies I must leave you,
I regret to say:
I've bought the ring,
This little fling
Will have to be our last soirée;
Because they're putting me away
And tomorrow is the happy day.
Oh, I'll be a starry-eyed groom
By high noon, no doubt,
So, who wants to kiss the bride-groom
On his last night out?
