(Warren Zevon)

When my Mama met my girl, she took me aside

She's a soft-spoken woman but she speaks her mind

She said "De de de de de de de de de de"

Let nothing come between you

De de de de de de de de de de

Don't let nothing come between you"

I went to see my friend to ask his advice

He just smiled and, "She's good around the eyes."

But I'd already made up my mind

Let nothing come between us



There are frustrated people in town

Who might envy us and try to bring us down

We know they don't really mean any harm

That doesn't mean we've gotta let 'em hang around



Got the license--got the ring

Got back the blood tests and everything

Putting on my boutonniere--It's her favorite flower

Then I'm walking down the altar and I'm gonna take the vow

De de de de de de de de de de

Don't let nothing come between us

De de de de de de de de de de

Don't let nothing come between us



There are frustrated people in town

Who might envy us and try to bring us down

We know they don't really mean any harm

That doesn't mean we've gotta let 'em hang around



I have advice for the young and old

If I may be so bold

When you find someone to have and hold

Don't let nothing come between you

De de de de de de de de de de

Get together and let nothing come between us

De de de de de de de de de de

Get together and let nothing come between us
