Writer: Doug Supernaw I should take it like a man And go and shake his hand But what I saw today On the wedding page Was more than I could stand All I could do was stare At you pictured there You were a lovely sight All dressed up in white With flowers in your hair It should have been me Wearin' tux and tails But I never got my initation in the mail The least you could have done Was to have me by your side 'Cause I was the one That gave away the bride
Well I'll bet your dad was proud When he walked you through the crowd Walking down the aisle With his only child To hear her wedding vows And when the preacher said Who gives you to be wed Did your dad say there were three Or did he forget me Like I guess you did And it should have been me Wearin tux and tails But I never got my invitation in the mail The least you could have done Was to have me by your side 'Cause I was the one That gave away the bride
