lyrics

14 years ago
I held you in my arms
I fed and watched you grow
I sheltered you from harm
and now the time has come
on your wedding day
where I hold you close again
and I give your hand away

If I can't have you nobody else can
and everyone must understand there won't be another man
you're the best thing that's ever fuckin' happened to my life
I'm happier than I have ever been
because my daughter is my wife

we went on that there springer show
and everybody booed
so I got down on one knee right there and
proposed myself to you
the odds were stacked against us
when I told your mother the news
that I was getting married again
getting hitched to you

If I can't have you nobody else can
and everyone must understand there won't be another man
you're the best thing that's ever fuckin' happened to my life
I'm happier than I have ever been
because my daughter is my wife

I married your cousin June
and then aunt Peggy-Sue
the logical next step in life
was to marry you

If I can't have you nobody else can
and everyone must understand there won't be another man
you're the best thing that's ever fuckin' happened to my life
you look so good in this here wedding ring (my wedding ring)
I'll be both the father and the grandfather to our offspring (offspring)
I'm happier than I have ever been (yeah!)
because my daughter is my wife
because my daughter is my wife

I love you baby
