Tammy Wynette · Me and the First Lady (George Jones & Tammy Wynette) [Epic] [1972]

(Billy Sherrill - Carmol Taylor)



(Dearly beloved we are gathered together in the presence)

(Of God and these witnesses to join this man and this woman)

(In the bonds of holy matrimony. Do you Tammy take this)

(Man George to be your lawfully wedded husband? To love)

(And to cherish until death do you part?)



I'll take this man and by him I'll stand

I promise that we'll never part

To him I'll be true there'll be no one new

From now till death do us part.



(And do you George take this woman Tammy to be your)

(Lawfully wedded wife? To love and to cherish until death do)

(You part?)



Yes, I'll take this woman, she'll be mine forever

And I'll love her with all of my heart

To have and to hold my love won't grow cold

I promise till death do us part.



We'll take each other from this day forward

Together in sickness or health

United with love, we'll face life together

If we're poor or if we have wealth.



For better or worse you'll always come first

And no one can keep us apart

Yes, we take each other forsaking all others

Together till death do us part.



(I now pronounce you man and wife...)
