Why Not Me Lyrics

WHY NOT ME

Fred Knoblock

I'll take another wedding in stride

Here's another June wedding

I'm sittin' on the bride's side...again

Why do they always have to play that song?

You know the one

It's funny, but we never get to sing along

Her daddy's got her by one arm

I used to have her by the other

At least until she found another lover and then another

Why not me?

We had a real love

She just didn't think we could put it all together

Why not me?

We had a real love

But in a flash, she's gone forever

Well, I think we're all here

I see Bill and Charlie

No, wait -- Eddie got smart

He had a golf game, and he just had to go to it Fred Knoblock - Why Not Me - http://motolyrics.com/fred-knoblock/why-not-me-lyrics.html

Why do they always have to ask that question?

You know the one

Should I speak now or forever hold my peace of mind?

Why not me?

We had a real love

She just didn't think we could put it all together

Why not me?

We had a real love

But in a flash, she's gone forever, gone forever

And the ceremony is grand

But old lovers never get to make a last stand

And I held some rice in my hand

I let it fall to the floor

I just don't care anymore

I'll just get drunk at the reception

I won't think about her twice

I'll just say, "Congratulations. You both look real nice, real nice."

Why not me?

We had a real love

She just didn't think we could put it all together
