It Should Have Been Me |
I saw my love walking down the aisle |
And as he passed me by He turned to me and gave me a smile |
Then the preacher, then the preacher |
The preacher joined their hands |
And all the people, the people began to stand |
When I shouted |
«You know that it should have been me» |
Instead of her walking with you |
You know that it should have been me, oh baby |
Gettin' ready to marry you, darlin', darlin', darlin' |
You made a promise that we would never part |
Then you turned around and you broke my little heart |
Now you’re standing there saying, «I do» |
Holding hands with somebody new |
You know that it should have been me Instead of her standing by you |
It should have been me Gettin' ready to say, «I do» |
Then the preacher, oh yeah |
The preacher asked that there be silence, please |
If any objections to this wedding |
Speak now or forever or forever hold your peace |
Then I shouted, «It should have been me» |
You know that it should have been me You know that it should have been me Baby, how could you do this to me? |
Darlin', darlin', darlin' |
It should have been me Don’t you know that it should have been me? |
You know that it should have been me It should have been me |
I’ve been faithful to you, baby, baby, baby |
It should have been me How could you do this to me? |
You know that it should have been me |
