verse 1
There's a Wedding in the chapel,
And the bride is oh so happy,
And Daddy's got a shotgun in his hand,
The groom is sweatin' bullets,
As the priest steps to the pulpit,
He's about to make this boy into a man.
Chorus
Sweet Jesus in the Garden,
Can you grant this boy a pardon,
For its true he really don't know what he's done,
Better lock the church door tight,
'Cause at the slightest crack of light,
That boy is gonna hit the ground and run,
He's gonna run he's gonna fly,
(D)
And he won't say Goodbye,
the Diapers and the diatribes,
Of her Daddy on the rum,
That boy is gonna hit the ground and run.
