51ST ANNIVERSARY
|
|
For fifty years they've been married
|
They can't wait for their fifty first
|
To roll around, yeah, roll around.
|
For thirty years they've been married
|
And now they're old and happy
|
And they settle down, ha ha
|
Settle down, yeah.
|
For twenty years they've been married
|
And they did everything that could be done
|
You know, they have their fun.
|
|
And then you come along and talk about it:
|
"So you, you say you wanna be married,
|
I'm gonna change your mind.
|
Oh, gotta change it."
|
That was the good side baby
|
Here comes the best side.
|
For ten years they've been married
|
A thousand kids went around homeless
|
'Cause their Mom was a louse
|
Daddy's down at the wiskey house.
|
That ain't all,
|
For three years they've been married
|
They don't get along so good,
|
They're tired of each other.
|
You know how that goes,
|
She got another lover.
|
Hah, same old thing.
|
So now you're seventeen
|
You run around hangin' out
|
And having your fun
|
Life for you has just begun baby.
|
|
And then you come sayin':
|
"So you, you say you wanna be married.
|
Oh, baby, tryin' to put me on a chain
|
Ain't that some shame?
|
You must be losin' your weak little mind.
|
I ain't ready to get married,
|
I ain't ready.
|
I'm gonna change your mind.
|
Ooh, look out baby.
|
Auh, I ain't ready to get tied down
|
I ain't ready, I ain't ready now
|
Let me live a little while longer
|
Let me live, let me live a little while longer
|
So I can finish talking,
|
Let me get back to my groooove . . .
