Black 47 - Maria's Wedding lyrics

You've just got to believe me

But just the thought of you takin' your clothes off

for that jerk

Oh, it got me drinkin' and then suddenly I'm

staggerin' into church

And I'm dancin' like Baryshnikov all across the high altar

Oh I bet that you're still mortified

But just think, girl,

No one's ever gonna be forgettin'

The day I wrecked your wedding

Oh Maria, I'd get down on my knees, girl,

You've just gotta believe me

But just the sight of you standin' there in your

brand new wedding dress

Oh, it got me so upset and then your father's screamin'

"You no good lousy punk

I always knew you were a drunk"

And your mother, she's havin' her

19th nervous breakdown

But just think girl

No one's ever gonna be forgettin'

The day I wrecked your wedding

Oh Maria, I'd do anything you asked me to,

I swear I'll change,

I'll even give up drinkin', hangin' out with the boys,

'Cause I just can't live without yur body and you

Oh Maria, I'll even sell my strat, give up the band

You better believe me, girl, this time it's true

Oh Maria, I'll even go out and get a job for you

Oh Maria, I'm so sorry I wrecked your wedding

You just got to believe me

But 10 years from now this is goin' to be

one big happy memory

Oh your old man he's even gonna grow to love me,

I'll give him 6 grandchildren

I'll be so respectable, I might even run for president, I

will be so electable, I'll keep you happy and

expectable and forever pregnant

That way you'll never be forgettin' -

the day I wrecked your wedding
