The Best Man

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Some fellows have a heart meant

Just for fooling around with chicks

And in that love department, they know all the latest tricks

Now I ran across a boy one day

Just as wild as any boy can be

And he wasn't surprised when I would say

That he meant the world to me!

She said I was the best man

Who ever knocked on her door

That's right

I said he was the best man

The fellow that I had waited for

And you know what else?

She said I was the best man

A dancing, and nobody can deny

That when it came to romancing

He was the a plus, number one guy

Yeah, but then she met my best friend

And knocked him just right off his pills

But still he wasn't worried

'Cause the best man always wins

Not always

(Ann-margaret)

The way it all turned out

There wasn't no doubt

That he was best man in the end

Yes I was the best man

When she married my best friend

The way it all turned out

There wasn't no doubt

That he was the best man in the end

Yes, he was the best man

When I married his best friend

Oh, yeah, I was the best man

When she married my best friend

Jumbo?

Yeah, baby

You know the best man always wins

Yeah, that's what I get for

Fooling around with some chicks

You know, you know I like you an awful lot!

Well, as far as I am concerned

The whole thing was a big, big drag

And that is the last time

I'm ever gonna get hung up again

Really?

Yeah

Oh, really?

That's right

Are you sure?

Well, maybe

Now, come on

Come, when know if you put it that way

I'm changing my mind

Come on?

I don't know, if I'm all

Uncertain about anything

Come on?

I'm so shook up
