Listen, I just wanna tell you a story
It happened to a friend of mine
Didn't have no power in the glory
City took a hell of a time??
The city was ahead kind of pushing
The only thing this about this girl
She went and she married another fellow
Knocked my friend right out of this world
He heard the preacher say here comes the bride
(here comes the bride)
Here comes the bride, baby (here comes the bride)
? (here comes the bride)
She looked lovely, here comes the bride
Somebody called to say they caring
Tell her that a refugee is coming in Philmont via the coast
Somebody call up his old man
Hey, tell him his son is a writer and ?? looking like a ghost
And somebody find that Virgin Mary
Oh, won't you tell that bitch, hey your two bees are coming back home
Somebody tell those ladies in waiting, hold it now
Don't tell the preacher, go on with it
We don't want to hear the words
Here comes the bride (here comes the bride)
I don't want to hear it, here comes the bride (here comes the bride)
Here comes the bride (here comes the bride)
Looks so lovely, so lovely, so lovely,
Don't you know the preacher looks so lovely, yeah yeah
Here comes the bride (here comes the bride)
(Here comes the bride)
