Adelaide

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 phoney and I'm a fake
She wants five children to start
Five's a difficult point to make
But Adelaide, Adelaide, ever-loving Adelaide
Is taking a chance on me taking a chance
I'll be respectable and nice
Give up cards and dice
And go for shoes and rice
So gentlemen, deal me out
Do not try to feel me out
I got no more evenings free
(you may scratch me)
Since Adelaide, Adelaide
Ever loving Adelaide is taking a chance
(talk about your long shots)
Taking a chance on me
