The Wedding

[Verse 1]

I found myself out walking, out by the Heather bell

The lights were on and music played from the wedding on the hill

I pushed the door right open, the room was running wild

There was beauty on the dance floor and Nancy turned and smiled

[Chorus]

She’s got emerald eyes and I wanna make her mine

Oh, she sways in shakes, moves her body like a snake

She’s a beauty, she’s a queen, the best I’ve ever seen

And she stole my heart when I met her at the wedding

[Verse 2]

The fiddler broke the window

The best man lost his tie

The piper kissed the bridesmaid

And drank the whiskey dry

The bride was on the table

The groom was on the floor

And then she signaled to me

And headed for the door

[Chorus]

She’s got emerald eyes and I wanna make her mine

Oh, she sways in shakes, moves her body like a snake

She’s a beauty, she’s a queen, the best I’ve ever seen

And she stole my heart when I met her at the wedding

[Bridge]

Oh, she dances around the heather like the moonlight on the glen

Every step she takes forever, I’ll be chasing her again

The river through the valley, she was flowing wild and free

When I see those big green eyes, oh, she marries me

[Chorus]

She’s got emerald eyes and I wanna make her mine

Oh, she sways and shakes, moves her body like a snake

She’s a beauty, she’s a queen, the best I’ve ever seen

And she stole my heart when I met her at the wedding
