Cold Feet performed by Shemekia Copeland
From the album Turn The Heat Up
Let me tell you about my big day, biggest day in my whole life
He was gonna be my husband and I was gonna be his wife
I couldn't wait to say, "I do," to show him that I care
When I looked around, that no-good wasn't there
He got cold feet, left me in the lurch
Cold feet, standing at the church
He just went away, left me holding the bouquet
He got cold feet
He said he'd never been so happy, it was time to settle down
But next thing that I know, he's moving out of town
I don't know which way he went, I don't which way that man was headed
But now you know the reason I always cry at weddings
He got cold feet, man, he just flew
Cold feet, took all my money, too
I said, "I'll see you later," dropped me like a hot potato
He got cold feet (Did a disappearing act)
He said, "Honey, I'll be there, right there by your side"
"When that organ starts to play that song 'Here Comes The Bride'"
The whole church was singing, man, we really rocked the room
The only problem we had, we couldn't find the groom
He got cold feet, egg on my face
Cold feet, never left a trace
Didn't bother to phone, spent my honeymoon alone
He got cold feet
Ladies, if you plan to marry, find a man that you can trust
Don't get stuck there at the altar or left there in the dust
Listen to these words of wisdom and your bubble will never burst
A handsome face is one thing, but check out his feet first
(And see if he's got--)
Cold feet, left me in the lurch
Cold feet, standing at the church
He just went away, left me holding the bouquet
He got cold feet
See if he's got cold feet, man, he just flew
Cold feet, he took all my money, too
I said, "I'll see you later," dropped me like a hot potato
He got cold feet, cold feet, cold feet
