lyrics
Speeding down the avenue, I got a pain my side and the wedding bell blues
Those things I said about your mother and you
Don't you even think that I didn't mean 'em
Drive-thru pawn, going to hock this ring, get shit-faced drunk, dance and sing
With a couple of whores full of costume bling
Make a sandwich and sleep between 'em
I ran out of my wedding in a powder blue tux
In a stolen beater Buick with a hundred bucks
Dodging bullets, cars and trucks
I'll be spending the night at the Americana Deluxe
The cops will catch me, but I don't care, there ain't no ring on my finger or rice in my hair
It ain't like the judge is going to give me the chair
Doing you is like doing time
He'll prob'ly just give me ten or twelve years of bustin' rocks and jammin' gears
But, I'll be shedding happy tears
Knowing you ain't making up my mind
I ran out of my wedding in a powder blue tux
In a stolen beater Buick with a hundred bucks
Dodging bullets, cars and trucks
I'll be signing my name at the Americana Deluxe
Cruising down the avenue, there's blood in my seat dripping on my shoes
BOLO alert, I just made the news but, you know that I ain't sorry
Hearing my name on the radio, if I gotta go out, that's the way to go
Sun going down nice and slow but, it won't come up tomorrow
I ran out of my wedding in a powder blue tux
In a stolen beater Buick with a hundred bucks
Dodging bullets, cars and trucks
I'll be safe at home in the Americana Deluxe
Chugging down the avenue, i got a pain in my side and the wedding bell blues
