Right now I'm going to bring out somebody who, she's not my goddaughter, she's not my granddaughter, she's not my daughter.
I don't know how we're related, but I've known her since she was four or five years old.
And sort of stayed in touch with her through the years, and it seems like I've known her forever.
Incredible singer, one of my favorite people in the world, Miss Patty [N] Austin.
So here's the deal.
You know Dave has written a lot of music for a lot of movies, and one of my favorite Davy movies is a movie that starred a guy that makes women swoon, even still, even though he plays really weird parts now, Jeff Bridges.
Right?
Still a sexy little fella.
And then there's this woman named Michelle Pfeiffer.
Is that Michelle?
Michelle, I told you about squeaking in these concert halls.
So Michelle did this fabulous number in the fabulous Baker Boys, you cannot ever forget this number, right?
And she slithered about the piano in a red dress.
Well, I don't have a red dress and I can't slither.
No, no.
I refuse to slither.
I'm too old to slither.
But I can tell you this tale based upon the song that she sang.
We're going to do the complete lyric.
I will just tell you, listen hard to this lyric.
I certainly wish that Tiger Woods had.
Here we go.

[Eb] another reason [D] for [A] making whoopee.
[D] [Fm] [E]
[Gbm] [Ab] [A] A lot of shoes, [Gb] [Bm] a lot of rice.
[E] The groom's so nervous, [Gbm] he [D] answers twice.
I do, I [E] do.
It's really [Db] killing [Gb] [Eb] that he's so [Cm] willing
[E] to [A] make some [Db] [Bm] whoopee.
[E] Now, [Dbm]
picture [Gb] [Bm] a little love nest [F] down where [G] the roses [A] cling.
[Bm]
[Db] Picture that [Gb] same [Bm] sweet love nest.
[Dm] [G] Think what a [Dm] year can [A] bring.
[D]
He's washing [A] dishes [Gb] [Bm] and baby clothes.

[Fm] Oh, [Bb] can't you guess?
[Gb] She feels [Dm] neglected, [G]
[Bb] and he's [Dbm] suspected [F] [Bb] of making [G] whoopee.
[Bb]
[Eb] She sits at home [Em] alone [C] most every night.
[F] He [Cm] doesn't phone, email, [Gm] tweet her, [Bb] all right.
[Ab] [G] It's really killing, he's so [Gb] willing.
He [Eb] says he's busy, she says [Bb] is he?
He says no.
[Eb] Well, [Bb] maybe he's making whoopee.
[G] [D] He [G] doesn't
[Abm] make [Cm] much money, [Ebm]
only [Ab] five billion [Bb] per.

[Gb] She says [Ab] you'll give six to [F] her.
He says [Bb] now, judge, [Gm] [E] what if I [Gm] fail?
[D] The [F] judge says, ha [Gm] ha ha ha ha, right [Bb] into jail.
[Ab] So [Bb] don't forget, folks, [G]
that's what [Ebm] you get, folks, [F] for making [Cm] whoopee.
[Eb]
Tiger, [Ab] you should have hired me [Cm]
way [Eb] back in [Ab] 1993.
[Bb] Making [Cm] whoopee.
