Lyrics
Now that we have had the rice and flowers
The knot is tied
I can visualize such happy hours
Close by your side
The honeymoon in store
Is one that you'll adore
I'm gonna take you for a ride
I'll go home and get my panties (You go home and get your panties)
You go home and get your scanties (I'll go home and get my scanties)
And away we'll go
Mmm-mmm-mmm
Off we're gonna shuffle
Shuffle off to Buffalo
To Niag'ra in a sleeper
There's no honeymoon that's cheaper
And the train goes slow
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Off, we're gonna shuffle
Shuffle off to Buffalo
Someday, the stork may pay a visit
And leave a little souvenir
Just a little cute "what is it"
But we'll discuss that later, Dear
For a little silver quarter
We can have the Pullman porter
Turn the lights down low
Ooh!
Off we're gonna shuffle
Shuffle off to Buffalo
You go home and get your clothes-es
I'll go get my these and thoses
And away we'll go, ooh
Off we're gonna shuffle
Shuffle off to Buffalo
To Niagara in a sleeper
There's no honeymoon that's cheaper
And the train goes slow, Mmm!
Off we're gonna shuffle
Shuffle off to Buffalo
Someday, the stork may pay a visit
And leave a little souvenir
Just a little cute "What is it?"
But we'll discuss that later, Dear
For a little silver quarter
We can have the Pullman porter
Turn the lights down low, ooh
Off we're gonna shuffle
Shuffle off to Buffalo
Matrimony is baloney
She'll be wanting alimony
In a year or so
Still they go and shuffle (ooh)
Shuffle off to Buffalo
When she knows as much as we know
She'll be on her way to Reno
While he still has dough (ooh)
She'll give him the shuffle
When they're back from Buffalo
She was just the farmer's daughter
And the salesman made his sale
What she got she didn't order
And you can't return by mail
To the chapel nearly got 'im
With some buckshot in his bottom
How could he say no? (Ooh)
He just had to shuffle
Shuffle off to Buffalo
For a little silver quarter
We can have the Pullman porter
Turn the lights down low, ooh
Off we're gonna shuffle
Come along and shuffle
Shuffle, shuffle, shuffle, shuffle, shuffle, shuffle, shuffle
To Buffalo
