I'll tell you what
You know I'll be gone in the morning
Riding on my banged up bike into the sun
I can't tell you why
But there's no need for you to mourn, baby
You can scream and you can shout
But you're better off when I am gone
And don't ask why
But I know I'll be at your wedding, baby
(Baby, that's what it's all about)
I'll be sitting in the back of the church
In my black old suit, yeah
(That's what it's all about)
And I don't know why
But I promise on the day of your wedding, baby
(Baby, that's what it's all about)
I'll be smiling in the back of the church
And that's the gospel truth, yeah
That's what it's all about, babe
High school sweetheart
Teaming up with the high school bone
Said you and I baby we go along way back, yeah
So young and wild, tasty like a sweet piece of corn
Well back in the days, hey, we didn't know jack, no, no
And don't ask why
But I know I'll be at your wedding, baby
(Baby, that's what it's all about)
I'll be sitting in the back of the church
In my black old suit, yeah
(That's what it's all about)
And I don't know why
But I promise on the day of your wedding, darling
(Baby, that's what it's all about)
I'll be smiling in the back of the church
And that's the gospel truth, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Mhm-mmh, mh
And every friend from way back when
Will be dancing with you, baby
A new beginning, not the end
No, no
Oh, with a smile upon my face
I will beg for your forgiveness
Forever and ever, yeah
And I don't know why
But I promise on the day of your wedding, baby
(Baby, that's what it's all about)
I'll be sitting in the back of the church
In my black old suit, yeah
(That's what it's all about)
And I don't know why
But I promise on the day of your wedding, darling
(Baby, that's what it's all about)
I'll be smiling in the back of the church
And that's the gospel truth, girl
Nah, nah, nah, no, no
Sitting in the back of the church
Ayy, ohh
(That's what it's all about)
Don't know why, no I don't know why
(Baby, that's what it's all about)
No, no, no
That's what it's all about
