He Knows A Lot About Love and Stuff, And He’s Gonna Marry Me
I love movie soundtracks. And I love the movie Sweet Home Alabama, but the Sweet Home Alabama soundtrack
was a terrible mistake. It featured easy-listening covers of classic southern rock hits… What were they thinking?!?
The one shining star of The Sweet Home Alabama soundtrack is Marry Me
Marry Me
by Dolly Parton
Well I met a boy from Grassy Branch
Fine as he can be
I met him at the big barn dance
And he took a shine to me
Sky blue eyes, a big, wide smile
And tall as a sycamore tree
He’s real smart with a real big heart
And he’s gonna marry me
He’s gonna marry me
And we’re gonna go to town
We’re gonna buy some real good car
And we’re gonna drive around
We’ll hold hands an’ touch ‘n’ hug
He talks so sweet to me
‘Cause he knows a lot about love and stuff
And he’s gonna marry me
His momma don’t like me one little bit
But you know I don’t care
Let her pitch her hissy fit
Cause I ain’t a’ marryin’ her
He’s always been a momma’s boy
It’s just plain jealousy
She’s as mad as an old wet hen
‘Cause he’s gonna marry me
Oh, an’ he’s gonna marry me
An’ he’s gonna buy me a ring
We’re gonna be so free
Cut momma’s apron strings
He’s gonna build me a pretty little house
Have a pretty little made-for-three
‘Cause he done kiss me on the mouth
An’ he’s gonna marry me
Yeah, he’s gonna marry me
He’s gonna buy me a ring
We’re gonna be so free
Cut momma’s apron strings
He’s gonna build me a pretty little house
Have a pretty little made-for-three
‘Cause he’s done kiss me on the mouth
So he’s gotta marry me
Yeah he’s done kiss me on the mouth
And he’s gonna marry me
