Write a loving letter, boy,
that swoops and sweeps and curls
the calligrapher is just the thing
to help you win your girl
Then youll need to dress up smart
The tailors here by chance
Hell stitch your trousers, hole your belt
in the fine couture of France
Your shoes, my goodness, how theyre worn
But youre too young to know
Nothing courts a womans scorn
more than scuffs on the toe
The cobbler can attend to that
meanwhile you must have cake
The baker and the patissier
need work, for goodness sake
Hi-dee-diddly-dum-ti-dum-ti-day
What a merry time well have
upon your wedding day!
Hi -dee-diddly-dum-ti-dum-ti-day
Theres work for all when little boys get married
That pointy cone upon your head
you cant be wearing that
The milliner, hell fix you up
with a proper high silk hat
The bride, of course, shell need a dress
on that we must agree
The seamstress, my young lover
oh, how grateful she will be!
The rings! By gum, did I forget?
well, thats my favorite part
The vows, the whole romantic mess
now thats the jewelers art!
And so, you see, our handiwork
is yours if youre inclined
But our livelihoods at stake
so dont you go and change your mind
Hi-dee-diddly-dum-ti-dum-ti-day
What a merry time well have
upon your wedding day!
Hi-dee-diddly-dum-ti-dum-ti-day
Theres work for all! The little boys gettin married
