Shotgun Wedding

Rod Stewart


People were standing, all around 
At a shot gun wedding, here in this town 
And I'm a victim oh yea 
of a shotgun wedding 
Cause your fathers got a gun 
and there ain't no place to run 
Shotgun wedding and oh listen to me 

Well I got to find a job 
You, me, baby makes three 
Shotgun, shotgun, shotgun, wedding oh yea
Cause your fathers got a gun 
and there ain't no place to run 
Shotgun wedding 
And all I could hear that day was 
Do you take this woman 
to be your lawful wedded wife 
my my my my shotgun, shotgun, shotgun, shotgun wedding 
I looked around 
I looked around 
and all I could see was a shotgun wedding....listen 

But I tried to run from town 
but her mother tracked me down 
She said before I meet my maker, 
some mans gonna make an honest woman of my daughter
so it might as well be you 
Oh daddy may be poor 
but he owns a forty forty 
Shotgun wedding 
and oh I'm walking up the aisle right now 

Here comes the bride singing 
Shotgun, shotgun, shotgun, shotgun, shotgun.....yea yeaaaa 
I could of run away oh no I could be living high
Nobody could stop me now oh shotgun, shotgun 
Just give me one more chance 
Let me hear that bass boys that bass boys 
breaking my heart 
breaking my heart 
breaking my heart........
