To your friends and family, whom on this great day we are overwhelmed to be seeing
and to those who attest, speak now or forever hold your peace.
Now wait a second I got something to say
I’ve known the bride in a biblical way
her hair was different but her lips were the same
I won’t allow these two be married today
She made a promise to me when we were young
but then she left me in a pit full of scum
so there I was just a pitiful man
and now I’ve made it here to steal forth her hand
You were always mine, and I was always yours babay
You were always mine, and I was always yours
You could walk away tonight, and leave this poor man
Walk away tonight and I’ll, steal your hand - Yeah!!!
Now wait a second said the groom and his men
As they surrounded me with belts in their hands
You must be looking for a beating my friend
You interrupt us at the altar again
Now honey tell this man to be on his way
She looked at him with a devious face
Then through the aisle as he begged her to stay
she looked at me and she started to say
You were always mine, and I was always yours babay
You were always mine, and I was always yours
You could walk away tonight, and leave this poor man
Walk away tonight and I’ll, steal your hand - Yeah!!!
You were always mine, and I was always yours babay
You were always mine, and I was always yours
You could walk away tonight, and leave this poor man
Walk away tonight and I’ll, steal your hand - Yeah!!!
Combining crooned murder ballads with raw, angsty hard rock hooks, Melbourne's The Ugly Kings are a wrecking crew well worth watching. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 15, 2021
