Hey baby won't you take my hand

And make me a happy man

I ain't rich but I found my fortune in you

Two jobs on the nighttime shift

I'm still left with an empty fist

But my heart is full and my love is true

We can still get married in the style of our friends and family

Gather all of them to celebrate while we slip out quietly



And have a hometown honeymoon

Wildflowers and love is in bloom

We'll have a hometown honeymoon just me and you

Hometown honeymoon

Get out of church and up to your room

We'll have a hoe-down afternoon

Dancing to the rhythm of love



We can sing and laugh out loud

Lifestyles of the poor but proud

Cuddle up on the porch and enjoy the view

We can't afford Niagara Falls

But there's a fountain by the old town hall

We'll make a wish by the light of a lover's moon

I'll get my Grandma's wedding ring and my brother's Chevrolet

We can stay at your mama's house; we don't have to go away



To have a hometown honeymoon

Wildflowers and love is in bloom

We'll have a hometown honeymoon

Dancing to the rhythm of love



Your daddy's prize possession

I'll make a good impression

I'm gonna get his blessing that's all we need



Hometown honeymoon

Wildflowers and love is in bloom

We'll have a hometown honeymoon just me and you

Hometown honeymoon

Get out of church and up to your room

We'll have a hoe-down afternoon

Dancing to the rhythm of love



Hometown honeymoon

Hometown honeymoon
