{c: Verse 1}
[D#]There's a married couple [A#7]happily, [D#]living in apartment [A#7]forty three. I live right next [Fm]door, in [D#]apartment forty [A#7]four.
[D#]Gee but they're a mushy [A#7]he and she. [D#]Mushing seems to be their [A#7]specialty. [F7]It would start you walking, [A#7]If you heard them talking.

{c: Chorus}
[Cm6]All day [A#7]long he calls her [D#]Snooky ookums, Snooky ookums, [Cm6]All they [A#7]do is talk like [D#]ba- [G7]bies;
[G#]She's his jelly [D#]elly roll, [G#]He's her sugey [D#]ugar bowl. [F7]Here's the way they bill and [A#7]coo, Poogy woo, poogy woo, [A#]Poogy woo.
[Cm6]All day night [A#7]long he calls her [D#]Snooky ookums, Snooky ookums, [Cm6]All night [A#7]long the neighbors [G7]shout, "Cut it out! cut it out! cut it out!"
[G#]They cry, "For [Fm]goodness [D#]sake! [Fm]Don't  keep us [G#]all a- [D#]wake, with your snooky, ookey, ookey [A#7]baby [D#]talk.

{c: Verse 2}
[D#]If you ever heard their [A#7]mushy song, [D#]if you see how well they [A#7]get along. You would bet your [Fm]life that they [D#]weren't man and [A#7]wife.
[D#]He's a little fellow [A#7]four feet tall. [D#]Weighing just a hundred [A#7]clothes and all; [F7]She's a great big lady [A#7]Weighs a hundred eighty.
