Lud:

I love my wife and i love her more

Than the way i used to love her before

She became my wife, but today she is

So don't call me early 'cause i'll be busy,

Beside her waiting for her to wake

And her eyes to open like dawn is breaking

The whole world over for me today,

'cause i can't believe that i heard her say

She would honour, love and obey 'til death do us

Pardon me if i catch my breath.



When i knew my wife was the wife for me

We went out and sat by the willow tree,

And i begged and pleaded, uh huh,

Marry me, honey, and that is what she did.





Chorus:

Begged and pleaded, uh huh

Marry me, honey,

And that is what she did.



Seena (=s.b.):

Oh, how you pleaded

If you thought you needed to

You sure were wrong!

You took too long.

But i kept on praying

One day i'd be saying

I love my husband, i love him more

Than the way i used to love him before

He became my husband but now he is,

So don't call me early 'cause i'll be busy

Beside him waiting for him to wake

And his loving arms to reach up and take me

For one more trip to the milky way,

Like he did before, when i heard him say

He would honour, love and obey 'til death do us

Pardon me if i catch my breath.



Oh, i never thought he'd propose to me

'til he took me out by the willow tree,

And he begged and pleaded, uh huh,

Marry me, honey, and that is what he did.





Chorus:

Begged and pleaded, uh huh

Marry me, honey,

And that is what she did.
