Текст песни: Wedding Of Hillbilly Lili Marlene + перевод

Oh, come on, Lilli. The folks are all a waiting.

Oh, Paw, I never can get enough sleep around here.

There were tears in the crowded congregation

They had cried, ‘til they washed their faces clean

There was free lunch and beer and recreation

At the wedding of Lilli Marlene

Men who dated her for season after season

From Kentucky, Alabam, and Tennessee

Come from miles around, but only for one reason

Just to see who the sucker would be

From the kitchen you could smell the beans a baking

You could smell the possum frying far and wide

You could hear guitars and fiddles softly faking

The melody called here comes the bride

Down the aisle come old Paw in all his glory

A slowly dragging Lilli by the hand

But the groom he was already at the altar

He saw the shotgun in Paw’s other hand

Do you take this man to be your wedded husband

Said the parson in these words so pure and plain

I sure do, but there’s just one other question

What’s that Lilli?

Please, tell me, sir. What is this here feller’s name

There were tears in the crowded congregation

When the wedding bells rang throughout the land

You could hear all the women folk a saying

Oh, Lilli’s finally got herself a man

(sound of shotgun)

I do.

Me too.
