Oh me oh my oh you
Whatever shall I do
Hallelujah
The question is peculiar
I’d give a lot of dough
If only I could know
The answer to my question,
Is it yes or is it no

Chorus
Does your chewing gum lose its flavor
On the bedpost overnight
If your mother says “Don’t chew it”
Do you swallow in spite
And you catch it on your tonsils
And you heave it left and right
(EEE EEE)
Does your chewing gum lose its flavor
On the bedpost overnight

Here comes the blushing bride
The groom is by her side
Up to the altar
Just as steady as Gibraltar
The groom has got the ring
And it’s such a pretty thing
That as he slips it on her finger
The choir begins to sing

Repeat Chorus

Now the nation rose as one
To send their honored son
Up to the white house
The nation’s only white house
To voice their discontent
Unto the Pres-i-dent
Upon the burning question
What has swept this continent

Repeat Chorus

Does your chewing gum lose its flavor
On the bedpost overnight
