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 sicamore 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 red 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 aprin 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 aprin 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
