I saw my love walking down the aisle
|
And as he passed me by
|
He turned and gave me a smile
|
Then, the preacher, then the preacher
|
The preacher joined their hands
|
And all the people, all the people began to stand
|
When I shouted, "you know it should have been me"
|
(Instead of her walking with you)
|
|
You are leaving me stranded
|
You know that it should have been me baby
|
Oh baby gettin' ready to marry you
|
Darlin' darlin' darlin'
|
You made a promise that we would never part
|
Then you turned around and 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
|
(I can't stand it)
|
Instead of her standing by you
|
You know that it should have been me
|
It should have been me
|
(Baby don't do it)
|
Then the preacher oh yeah the preacher asked
|
That there be silence please
|
|
If anybody objects to this wedding
|
Speak now or forever or forever hold your peace
|
Thin I shouted, "It should have been me"
|
You know that it should have been me
|
Don't you know that it should have been me
|
You know that it should have been me
|
I've been faithful to you baby, baby, baby
|
You were leaving me stranded
|
