Call The Preacher
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.
We agreed to wait
Postpone our wedding date
Well I don't know what I was thinking of
'Cause now I want to change my mind
I don't want to waste our time
I'm sure that you're the one I'll always love
CHORUS: So call the preacher, call our friends
Book the church house for the weekend
Let the wedding bells start ringin' in this town
And to prove that you're the one
I want to put a ring upon
That pretty finger
That I've been wrapped around
I know there's lots of men
Who'd rather have a "live-in"
It's fun to have your cake and eat it too
I've been there before
And I kept that open door
But honey, I don't ever plan on leavin' you
(REPEAT CHORUS)
Tag: Yes, to prove that you're the one
I want to put a ring upon
That pretty finger
That I've been wrapped around
