Lud:
|
I love my wife and I love her more
|
Than the way I used to love her before
|
She became my wife, but today she is
|
So don't call me early 'cause I'll be busy,
|
Beside her waiting for her to wake
|
And her eyes to open like dawn is breaking
|
The whole world over for me today,
|
'Cause I can't believe that I heard her say
|
She would honour, love and obey 'til death do us
|
Pardon me if I catch my breath.
|
|
When I knew my wife was the wife for me
|
We went out and sat by the willow tree,
|
And I begged and pleaded, uh huh,
|
Marry me, honey, and that is what she did.
|
|
|
Chorus:
|
Begged and pleaded, uh huh
|
Marry me, honey,
|
And that is what she did.
|
|
Seena (=S.B.):
|
Oh, how you pleaded
|
If you thought you needed to
|
You sure were wrong!
|
You took too long.
|
But I kept on praying
|
One day I'd be saying
|
I love my husband, I love him more
|
Than the way I used to love him before
|
He became my husband but now he is,
|
So don't call me early 'cause I'll be busy
|
Beside him waiting for him to wake
|
And his loving arms to reach up and take me
|
For one more trip to the Milky Way,
|
Like he did before, when I heard him say
|
He would honour, love and obey 'til death do us
|
Pardon me if I catch my breath.
|
|
Oh, I never thought he'd propose to me
|
'Til he took me out by the willow tree,
|
And he begged and pleaded, uh huh,
|
Marry me, honey, and that is what he did.
|
|
|
Chorus:
|
Begged and pleaded, uh huh
|
Marry me, honey,
|
And that is what she did.
