Big Bopper's Wedding
Composer(s): J.P. Richardson
Performer(s): The Big Bopper



And the man keeps sayin´ 
´Do you take this woman to be your awful wedded wife?´ 
Heh, heh

And then I started thinkin´ about no more winkin´
At the pretty little gals a-boppin´ by
No more dancin´ and new romancin´
Lord, it made me want to sit down and cry
Aw, no pool shootin´ and a rootin´ and a-tootin´
With the boys if I take you for my wife
I can´t go no place, I gotta look at your face
For the rest of my dog gone life
This is it!

Ah, honey, what am I doin´ here in the first place?
You knooooooow I don´t go for this marraige bit!
I was only kiddin´! Hahahahahahaha
And there´s your daddy sittin´ over there with a shotgun layin´ across his lap
And a big smile on his ugly face
And the man keeps sayin´ 
´Are you gonna take this woman or aintcha?´

Well, then I started thinkin´ about no more winkin´
At the pretty little gals a-boppin´ by
No more dancin´ and new romancin´
Lord, it made me want to sit down and cry
Aw, no pool shootin´ and a rootin´ and a-tootin´
With the boys if I take you for my wife
I can´t go no place, I gotta look at your face
For the rest of my dog gone life
This is it!

Honey, what´s this jazz about Love, Honor, and Obey?
That cat´s talkin´ to me! Heheheh
And look at all these good lookin´ bride maids standin´ around, heh
Hellllllo, baaaby!
And the man in charge keeps sayin´ 
´Looky here, do you take this woman or dontcha?´

Well, then I started thinkin´ about no more winkin´
At the pretty little gals a-boppin´ by
No more dancin´ and new romancin´
Lord, it made me want to sit down and cry
Aw, no pool shootin´ and a rootin´ and a-tootin´
With the boys if I take you for my wife
I can´t go no place, I gotta look at your face
For the rest of my dog gone life
This is it!

And the man keeps sayin´ 
´Look here, do you take this woman or dontcha?´
And I say ´Partnah, I don´t believe I do 
Let me outa here!
