I told you on the day we wed
I was gonna love you 'til I's dead
Made you wait 'til our wedding night
That's the first and the last time I wear white
So if the ties that bind ever do come loose
Tie them in a knot like a hangman's noose
Cause I'll go to heaven or I'll go to hell
Before I'll see you with someone else
Put me in the ground
Put me six foot down
And let the stone say:
Same as the verses
Here lies the girl whose only crutch
( if you want)
Was loving one man just a little too much
If you go before I do
I'm gonna tell the gravedigger that he better dig two
Well,
It won't be whiskey, won't be meth
It'll be your name on my last breath
If divorce or death ever do us part
The coroner will call it a broken heart
Put me in the ground
Put me six foot down
And let the stone say:
Here lies the girl whose only crutch
( if you want)
Was loving one man just a little too much
If you go before I do
I'm gonna tell the gravedigger that he better dig two
Dig two
Ooh, ooh
I took your name when I took those vows
I meant 'em back then and I mean 'em right now,
Oh, right now
If the ties that bind ever do come loose
If forever ever ends for you
If that ring gets a little too tight
You might as well read me my last rights
Pause x x x x
And let the stone say:
Here lies the girl whose only crutch
( if you want)
Was loving one man just a little too much
If you go before I do
I'm gonna tell the gravedigger that he better dig two
Heavy stone right next to mine,
We'll be together 'til the end of time
Don't you go before I do,
I'm gonna tell the gravedigger that he better dig two
I told you on the day we wed
I was gonna love you 'til I's dead
