1-24
(w) Alan Jay Lerner (m) Frederick Loewe (I) Musical: My Fair Lady by Stanley Holloway
I’m getting married in the morning.
Ding, dong the bells are gonna chime.
Pull out the stopper, let’s ’ave a whopper,
But get me to the church on time.
I gotta be there in the morning,
Spruced up and lookin’ in me prime.
Girls come and kiss me, show how you’ll miss me,
But get me to the church on time.

If I am dancin’ roll up the floor.
If I am whistlin’ whewt me out the door.
For I’m getting married in the morning.
Ding, dong the bells are gonna chime.
Kick up a rumpus, but don’t lose the compass.
And get me to the church, get me to the church,
For god’s sake, get me to the church on time.

I’m getting married in the morning
Ding dong! the bells are gonna chime.
Drug me or jail me, Stamp me and mail me.
But get me to the church on time!
I gotta be there in the morning
Spruced up and lookin’ in me prime.
Some bloke who’s able Lift up the table,
And get em to the church on time!
If I am flying Then shoot me down.
If I am wooin’, get her out of town!
For I’m getting married in the morning!
Ding dong! the bells are gonna chime.
Feather and tar me, call out the Army
but get me to the church, get me to the church...
For Gawd’s sake, get me to the church on time!
