Who's Gonna Pay For The Wedding chords by Chad Morgan
Verse 1
D
Oh, I've been sittin' thinkin'
about my wedding day
I ain't got no money
A
but someone's gotta pay
D
So I think I'll ask her father
to will his dough to me
And then to blow his
A
D
brains out with a 303
Well, the preacher's read
around the gills,
he says, I want my dough
For I ain't gonna marry you,
A
mean young so -and -so
D
I want my money straight away,
I can't give you no time
For how the heck can I buy juice
A
D
for that new car of mine?
And he said, my son,
I must confess that you're a crafty one
It takes a lot of cleverness
A
to do what you have done
You took the bell down
D
from my church
as bold as anything
A
Then you gave it to your bride -to -be,
D
so she could have a ring
So I sent a wire up to my dad,
said, please send dough, I'm stuck
But he sent back a letter,
A
says, son, you're out of luck
D
I've saved and saved for years and years,
till my fortune big did grow
A
But your mother's found my hiding place,
D
and now I got no dough
So I got myself a pension,
I thought that I'd be set
They'll pay me every fortnight,
A
I'll get married now you bet
D
And then at the reception
there'll be lots and lots of grog
But the money from a pension
A
D
wouldn't feed a flaming dog
There's only one thing left to do,
it don't seem fair I know
But we'll have to try our hardest
A
and help Australia grow
D
Then child endowment we can save
till we have enough to pay
To preach a man to tie the knot
A
D
G
on our wedding day.
