Black 47 - Maria's Wedding lyrics

rate me

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

You've just gotta 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 forgetting

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 in your brand new weddin' dress

Oh, it got me so upset

And then your father's screamin' and callin' me

"You no good lazy 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 forgetting

The day I wrecked your wedding

Oh Maria, I'll do anything you ask 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 your 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 weddin'

You just got to believe me

But 10 years from now this is all goin' to be one big happy memory

Oh your old man'll even grow to love me, I'll give him 6 grandchildren

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

I'll keep you happy and expectable and forever pregnant

That way you'll never be forgetting - the day I wrecked your wedding
