Shotgun Wedding Lyrics - Artist : Buddy Brown
We ain't talked in a couple years
The last time I saw him we were throwing back beer A couple of bachelors in a town too small For our reputations to let us stay long I could tell that boy was never gonna change He'd sowed his oats by now still he carried his ways There was no point telling him to settle it down If it was gonna happened it'd have happened by now Until he called me late one night Said, "Man, are ya sitting down I'm gonna be daddy real soon And no I'm ain't messing around" Are ya coming to my shotgun wedding down in Jackson Her momma's so happy but her daddy ain't laughing Yeah, I 'm trying to make it right the only way I know We got family coming in from a hundred different ways I gotta face 'em straight on and I know what they're gonna say Man, I need you here real bad, can you make it down? Yeah, I'm headed to a shotgun wedding way back in our hometown I thought of all those times he'd be up all night Chasing those skirts till the morning light There was one girl who set a wedding date But she went crazy or at least he'd say So I guess his time has come To buckle down and be a man And I'll try hard not to laugh At the altar if I can 'Cause I'm going to a shotgun wedding down in Jackson Her momma's so happy but her daddy ain't laughing Yeah, he's trying to make it right the only way he knows He's got family coming in from a hundred different ways He's gotta face 'em straight on and I know what they're gonna say So I need to help the boy out and drive on down Yeah, I'm headed to a shotgun wedding way back in my hometown Well all our ex girlfriends were sitting in the pews With a sigh of relief when he said I do We wished them well and we all drove on out to the lake And there might be another shotgun wedding If I stay out too late |
