Status Quo - I Knew The Bride lyrics

Your rating:

Well, the bride looked a picture in the gown that her momma wore
When she was married herself nearly twenty-seven years before
Well, they had to change the style a little but it looked just fine
Stayed up all night but they got it finished just in time

Now on the arm of her daddy she's a-walking down the aisle
And she catches my eye and she gives me a secret smile
Maybe it's too old-fashioned but we were once close friends
But the way she looks today she never could have then

Well, I can see her now in her tight blue jeans
Pumping all her money in the record machine
Spinning like a top, you shoulda seen her go
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll

Now a proud daddy only wanna give his little girl the best
So he put down a grand on a cosy little lovers nest
You could have called the reception an unqualified success
And a posh hotel for a hundred and fifty guests

Well, I can see her now drinking with the boys
Breaking their hearts like they were toys
She used to love to party, she used to love to go
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll

Well, I can see her now with her headphones on
Jumping up and down to her favourite song
She used to love to party, she used to wanna go
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll

Take a look at the bridegroom who's smiling pleased as pie
Shaking hands all round with a glassy look in his eye
He got a real good job and the shirt and tie is nice
But I remember a time when she would never even look at him twice

Well, I can see her now drinking with the boys
Breaking their hearts like they were toys
She used to love to party, she used to love to go
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll

I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
