Lyrics Tennessee Wedding - Jim Bianco

Tennessee Wedding

It was a Tennessee wedding
The summer sun was setting
The preacher was sweating like the swine
As the bride started drinking
The groom started winking
At the brides maid thinking 'maybe one last time'
Winnie’s looking pretty
She brought her husband from the city
They’re dancing to the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band
But after seven glasses
Of the southern sweet molasses
She started making passes at the best man’s sister
Mama’s in the kitchen
Cookin' chicken, she’s panic stricken
For her little boy’ll be a married man
While daddy’s on the phone
Holding his wishbone
And talking Mrs. Pipitone into a one night stand
Virgil works for cable
He’s got his elbows on the table
His second wife Mable’s in deep
Because his first wife
Is doing twenty-five to life
She took a steak knife to him in his sleep
Wanna see the scar?
Billy had a fit
The pig is on the spit
And he said, «I wish I could lick it clean!»
Clydes eyes were on the bride;
he said
«Little billy boy
I know exactly what you mean»
