Two kids get married, same old thing

Folks congratulate you, church bells ring

Who's got the ring, who's gonna pay the priest

Get your name in the paper, picture or two at least



And at the reception all the old records play

"where you gonna live, are you gonna take her away?"

In a corner my new nephew's showin' me his knife

You swore that you'd love her for the rest of your life



Went to kiss you at the altar we bumped heads

Honeymoon night we figured we best shake on it instead

Dressed kinda funny, laughin' we hop in bed

You can wear it on your feet, you can wear it on your head



Come mornin' my new family's sitting on the front porch swing

Smilin' kinda funny, nobody says a thing

My new brother-in-law's throwin' a football, he tosses me a pass

We all sit down on the front stoop, everybody happy at last
