Chorus
And when I show them the band
That I bought for the hand of Mandy Lee
There’ll be talk around the family
Lordy how they all will envy me
I’ll get a kiss from my mother
And a blessing from my dad
Neighbors by the score
Knockin’ at the door
Maybe I won’t be mighty glad
And then I’ll pray night and day
For the one happy day that’s coming soon
When they play that old familiar tune
It’s the one that means a honeymoon
Then there’ll be rice all over Dixieland
When that ever-loving Parson
Hands the wedding band
From me to Mandy Lee
Performance
