Buddy Brown - Shotgun Wedding Lyrics






We ain't talked in a couple years
The last time I saw him we were throwing back beer
A couple of bachelors in a town too small
For our reputations to let us stay long
I could tell that boy was never gonna change
He'd sowed his oats by now still he carried his ways
There was no point telling him to settle it down
If it was gonna happened it'd have happened by now

Until he called me late one night
Said, "Man, are ya sitting down
I'm gonna be daddy real soon
And no I'm ain't messing around"

Are ya coming to my shotgun wedding down in Jackson
Her momma's so happy but her daddy ain't laughing
Yeah, I 'm trying to make it right the only way I know
We got family coming in from a hundred different ways
I gotta face 'em straight on and I know what they're gonna say
Man, I need you here real bad, can you make it down?
Yeah, I'm headed to a shotgun wedding way back in our hometown

I thought of all those times he'd be up all night
Chasing those skirts till the morning light
There was one girl who set a wedding date
But she went crazy or at least he'd say

So I guess his time has come
To buckle down and be a man
And I'll try hard not to laugh
At the altar if I can

'Cause I'm going to a shotgun wedding down in Jackson
Her momma's so happy but her daddy ain't laughing
Yeah, he's trying to make it right the only way he knows
He's got family coming in from a hundred different ways
He's gotta face 'em straight on and I know what they're gonna say
So I need to help the boy out and drive on down
Yeah, I'm headed to a shotgun wedding way back in my hometown

Well all our ex girlfriends were sitting in the pews
With a sigh of relief when he said I do
We wished them well and we all drove on out to the lake
And there might be another shotgun wedding
If I stay out too late

    We ain't talked in a couple years

    Til he called me late one night
    Said man, are ya sittin down
    I'm gonna be daddy real soon
    And no I'm ain't messing around

    Are ya coming to my shotgun wedding down in Jackson
    Her momma's so happy but her daddy ain't laughing
