Played Ga wedding for the money
And I wish I could have told the bride and Cgroom
Just what I D7think of marriage

About how men and women ought to live Capart
How a D7promise never made could not be broken
And would never break a Gheart

Suddenly from out of nowhere
This little girl came spinning across the Cfloor
Her D7crinolines were billowing
Beneath the skirt of calico she Gwore

Each one of them was drawn into her Cdream
And they D7laughed and stamped and clapped their hands
And hollered at her dance little GJean

Two people that you love A7stood up to say I D7do
CDance little Jean the prayer that you Ghad was answered Ctoday

Well this cynic's heart just melted
As I figured what this get together Cmeant
And how it D7ended years of tears
And sad confusions that the little girl had Gspent

About the time the couple cut the Ccake
But we D7stayed and we played all night long
For love and laughs and little Jeanie's Gsake

Two people that you love A7stood up to say I D7do

Your D7momma's marrying your Gdad
