While the band plays inside
And I don't want no fancy dress
So baby, if you're free
So let's make a toast and drink up the wine
Until the end of time
That you love me more in a minute
Wherever you are I wanna be
Eat jambalaya, drink lemonade
And when the day is finally over
Somehow I know, without asking why
Let's go down to New Orleans
Before we sleep baby, marry me
And anything that means anything to you
And lie in a field staring up at the sky
Sneakin' out the back door
Here's to you lyin' here next to me
And they'll talk for weeks but we're all we need
Dancing in the parking lot
I wanna drive until we get lost
And we stumble home
Than anyone could in a lifetime
From the moment I met you
Baby, marry me
While you point out the Southern Cross
I have been blessed
'Til the day I die
Means everything to me
Sweep me off my feet, baby, marry me
We don't need no preacher man
And watch the parade and take funny pictures
While they're throwing the rice
Marry me
Ain't no ceremony for the vows that I took
Readin' from the Good Book
