Henrietta's Wedding (Marais & Miranda)

We've been invited to Henrietta's wedding,
But she won't tell us when it will be. (We can see)
We hear the tears her mother is shedding
Are because of the old ladies tea.

When will it be, when will it be, when will it be, when will it be,
When will it be, when will it be, when will it be, when will it be?

We've been invited to Henrietta's wedding,
Though she can't tell us when it will be.

Though we're invited to Henrietta's wedding,
No one knows who her husband will be. (Who can it be?)
She says she's started to buy all the bedding,
But the husband's a deep mystery.

Who can it be, who can it be, who can it be, who can it be,
Who can it be, who can it be, who can it be, who can it be?

Though we're invited to Henrietta's wedding,
No one knows who her husband will be.

We've been invited to Henrietta's wedding,
And we want to know what there will be. (What'll there be)
From all the news that we hear has been spreading,
There'll be something besides cake and tea.

What will there be, what will there be, what will there be, what will there be,
What will there be, what will there be, what will there be, what will there be?

We've been invited to Henrietta's wedding,
And we want to know what there will be.
(What can it be, what can it be, what can it be?)

We've been invited to Henrietta's wedding,
And we want to know where it will be.
We wonder which way to go to the wedding,
And between you and me, so does she.

Where will it be, where will it be, where will it be, where will it be,
Where will it be, where will it be, where will it be, where will it be?

We wonder which way to go to the wedding, (Ho, ho)
And between you and me, so does she.


This is transcribed from an old scratchy record, so I hope it's okay.
