The Wedding Cakewalk Composer(s): Cole Porter Performer(s): Martha Tilton; Fred Astaire; Rita Hayworth
Well, here comes the bride, no less It's hot stuff, that fluffy dress I must admit, though she's lit She looks a bit sweet
No wonder her Romeo Begins shoutin' "Hidy-ho!" As his bride starts to stride To a boogie beat
There's a big increase in marriages Due to a tune, they say The Wedding Cakewalk Is the roundelay
When newlyweds in fancy carriages Leave the reception gay The Wedding Cakewalk Sends them on their way
Pasty choirs in tasty churches Give it all they,ve got Prudish old preachers on their perches Say, "A-men, it's hot!"
All those bridal suites at Claridge's Have radios that play The Wedding Cakewalk Night and day!
