I met my baby at the bottom of the hill I said, take me with I love you still We got all the things we need tonight We'll scoot uptown and do the bride
Let's elope baby, pa's asleep and ma is too Let's elope baby ... The preacher is a-waitin' and my heart is true
Standin' there smootchin' in the cold moonlight Saw a model \"A\" with the lights on bright Thought it was pa, turn me loose If it had a-been, he had a-cooked his goose
The man in the car said, how about a ride I'll give you a lift, she'll be your bride What you say baby, let's go right now Who gives a hoot what pa don't allow
Well the Ford went runnin' and boppin' along Huggin' my sugar while I humm this song My folks think we're out on a date They won't know until it's too late They won't know until it's too late
