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
