Lyrics
Love and marriage, love and marriage
Go together like a horse and carriage
This I tell ya, brother
Ya can’t have one without the other
Love and marriage, love and marriage
It’s an institute you can’t disparage
Ask the local gentry
And they will say it’s element’ry
Try, try, try to separate them
It’s an illusion
Try, try, try and you will only come
To this conclusion
Love and marriage, love and marriage
Go together like a horse and carriage
Dad was told by mother
You can’t have one, you can’t have none
You have can’t have one without the other
