Marry Me

Dolly Parton · The Acoustic Collection: 1999-2002 [Sugar Hill] [2006]

(Dolly Parton)



Well, I met a boy from Grassy Branch fine as he can be

I met him at the big barn dance and he took a shine to me

Sky-blue eyes, a big wide smile and tall as a sicamore tree

He's real smart with a real big heart and he's gonna marry me.



He's gonna marry me and we're gonna go to town

We're gonna buy some real good car and we're gonna drive around

We'll hold hands an' touch 'n' hug, he talks so sweet to me

'Cause he knows a lot about love and stuff and he's gonna marry me.



--- Instrumental ---



His momma don't like me one little bit but you know I don't care

Let her pitch her hissy-fit 'cause I ain't a'marryin' her

He's always been a momma's boy it's just plain jealousy

She's as mad as an old red hen 'cause he's gonna marry me.



Oh, an' he's gonna marry me and he's gonna buy me a ring

We're gonna be so free, cut momma's aprin strings

He's gonna build me a pretty little house, have a pretty little made-for-three

'Cause he done kiss me on the mouth and he's gonna marry me.



Yeah, he's gonna marry me and he's gonna buy me a ring

We're gonna be so free, cut momma's aprin strings

He's gonna build me a pretty little house, have a pretty little made-for-three

'Cause he's done kiss me on the mouth so he's gotta marry me.



Yeah he's done kiss me on the mouth and he's gonna marry me.
