Now we`ll say till something do us part That old dad of mine ain`t got a heart Any girl who`s out for pleasure Thinks of marriage only at her leisure As it is, they`ve got the horse behind the cart
When my pop said we must wed, He kind of wowed me, still I`m read-y But one thing must be clear At this time
I`ll be hard to handle I promise you that And if you complain Here`s one little Jane Who`ll leave you flat
I`ll be hard to handle What else can I be I say with a shrug I think you`re a mug To marry me
When you first threw me a gander I was willing to philander But I never thought I`d have to be a bride Now you`re gonna find tough sledding I don`t want no shotgun wedding I was only along for the ride
I`ll be hard to handle I`m telling you plain Just be a dear and scram out of here I`m gonna raise cain
I`ll be hard to handle My bridges are burned This wedding`s a gag And you`re in the bag Where I`m concerned
I`ll be hard to handle When we`ve said, "I do" See there`s no hope I just got a dope When I took you
I`ll be living my life in bed But they always will be twin beds And I warn you, you`ll be living like a monk Our affair is now a past one So don`t think you`ve pulled a fast one Just remember, I think you`re a punk!
I`ll be hard to handle I`m no ball and chain I`ll find some means To call the Marines I`m gonna raise cain
