Lyrics
Verse 1
Comin? from the country, I?ve earned a reputation
Of not bein? too rich, or of high sophistication
Give me a rusty F150 and some faded blue jeans
But I met a little gal, and she thinks I?m swell
And she told me ?yes? out by the wishing well
So we?re throwin? a wedding like they?ve never seen
Chorus 1
In my new black Stetson that is smooth as silk
I?m as cool as a cookie in a tall glass of milk
Standin' large in my rented tux
I?m crisp as a freshly minted million bucks
Lookin' hot for the union of this bride and groom
From the ring on my finger?to the bling on my boots
Verse 2
Yeah, that little woman is perfect for me
She likes makin? out under the maple tree
I finally found someone that likes it simple as me
She?d rather honky-tonk on a Saturday night
Turnin? every head with her jeans just right
But today she looks like the Rose Bowl Queen
Chorus 2
In her new white dress with ribbons and lace
She gives new meaning to Amazing Grace
As we drive away in our stretch limosine
She?s lookin' like the cover of a Vogue magazine
Sparklin? for the union of this bride and groom
From the ring on her finger?to the bling on her boots
Bridge
We look like tens, dressin? to the nines
Who?s that in the mirror tryin? to straighten his tie?
That ain?t no hillbilly with a box-of-wine cellar
Look at me - you?d think I was a Rockefeller
Chorus 1
