Intro.: | | | x 2
Mama planned it all, said it's pretty in the fall
And the flowers would be roses and daisies
And she prayed nobody saw the weight that I put on
The bride shouldn't be 4 months and 3 weeks
(Chorus)
Daddy's pride and joy is marry- ing some boy
And he looked a- fraid the preacher turned the page
And I was wearing beige
Nowhere Baptist church wrinkles in his shirt
No one's having a ball at the re- ception hall
And we didn't take no honey- moon with what we've got ourselves into
A quick "I do" and then back home a- gain
(Chorus)
Daddy's pride and joy was marry- ing some boy
Now every- one in this place knows I didn't wait
'Cause I was wearing beige, I was wearing beige
