Maria's Wedding Lyrics

Black 47 Maria's Wedding

Songwriters: Kirwan, Larry;

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 and 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 standing there in your brand new weddin' dress
Oh, it got me so upset

And your father's screamin', "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 and 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 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
And that way you will never be forgetting
The day I wrecked your wedding
Oh Maria, the day I wrecked your wedding, oh

That way you'll never be forgetting
That way you'll never be forgetting
That way you'll never be forgetting
You'll never, never, never, never, never
Never, never, never, never, never be forgetting
That way you'll never be forgetting
You'll never, never, never, never be forgetting
That way you'll never be forgetting
The day I wrecked your wedding
