There's a Wedding in the chapel, 
And the bride is oh so happy, 
And Daddy's got a shotgun in his hand, 
The groom is sweatin' bullets, 
As the priest steps to the pulpit 
He's about to make this boy into a man 

Sweet Jesus in the Garden 
Can you grant this boy a pardon 
For its true he really don't know what he's done 
Better lock the church door tight 
'Cause at the slightest crack of light 
That boy is gonna hit the ground and run 
He's gonna run he's gonna fly 
He's out the door and down the street 
And he won't say Goodbye 
the Diapers and the diatribes 
Of her Daddy on the rum 
That boy is gonna hit the ground and run 

Was it the rubbing or the tugging 
Put a bun in Nancy's oven 
She's praying she's not starting to show 
But the wedding's set for April 
and she's known since November 
She ain't got hells chance of a ball of snow 

What in the Lords name was he thinking 
You can't blame this all on drinking 
You can count the family teeth upon one hand 
By Midnight he was muddled 
for her gene pool is a puddle 
That boy might be the Daddy of his old man
