Yeah I said "Momma he's crazy and he scares me

      D              A
But I want him by my side

            G             A       D                    G
Though he's wild and he's bad and sometimes just plain mad

I need him to keep me satisfied"

And I see you in some of his ways

          G         A           D             G
Though he might not give me the life that you wanted

     D            A          D
I'll love him the rest of my days"

Heart like a Gabriel, pure and white as ivory

G           A                  D                    G

          G                  A           D                  G
Well it's in the way that he walks, it's in the way that he talks

    D          A              D
His smile, his anger, and his kisses"

    G               A         D          G
I'm tired of sittin round the t.v. every night

D          A         D
Hoping I'm finding a Mister Right"

He says "Baby don't listen to what they say

      G                 A              D
There comes a time when you'll have to break away"

         G              A             D                G
He says "Baby there are things we all cling to all our lives

It's time to let them go and become my wife"
