Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Well, she looked a peach in the dress she made

When she was still her mama's little girl

And when she walked down that aisle, everybody smiled

At her innocence and curls

[Verse 2]

And when the preacher said, "Is there anyone here"

"Got a reason why they shouldn't wed?"

[Verse 3]

I should've stuck up my hand

I should've got up to stand

And this is what I should have said

[Verse 4]

I wanna kiss the bride, yeah

I wanna kiss the bride, yeah

[Verse 5]

Long before she met him (Ooh)

She was mine, mine, mine

Don't say I do

Say bye, bye, bye

[Verse 6]

And let me kiss the bride, yeah

I wanna kiss the bride, yeah

[Verse 7]

Underneath her veil, I could see a tear

Trickling down her pretty face

And when he slipped on the ring, I knew everything

Would never be the same again

[Verse 8]

But if the groom woulda known, he'd have had a fit

About his wife and the things we did (Doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo)

[Verse 9]

And what I planned to say

Yeah, on her wedding day

Well, I thought it but I kept it hid

[Verse 10]

I wanna kiss the bride, yeah

I wanna kiss the bride, yeah

[Verse 11]

Long before she met him (Ooh)

She was mine, mine, mine

Don't say I do

Say bye, bye, bye

[Verse 12]

And let me kiss the bride, yeah

I wanna kiss the bride, yeah

[Verse 13]

(Ah)

(Ah) Oh, I wanna kiss the bride, yeah

I wanna kiss the bride, yeah

[Verse 14]

Long before she met him (Ooh)

She was mine, mine, mine

Don't say I do

Say bye, bye, bye

[Verse 15]

And let me kiss the bride, yeah

I wanna kiss the bride, yeah

I wanna kiss the bride, yeah

I wanna kiss the bride, yeah

I wanna kiss the bride, yeah
