Mark Mathis - Prenup lyrics

Artist: Mark Mathis

album: We Both Was Young


I wrote your father a letter asking him for your hand
He said, "son, we're both excited, but there's things to understand.
You see i caught myself that bluebird through my wits and workin' hard.
And i will not give it to my daughter's man - with a degree in art."
You see these things have been set in place for as long as i can remember
And I'm not one to change the old ways - honey, love's not as good as tender
I said, "sir, i don't want your money, but i will not sign your slip.
And if you really were a man of honor, yeah, you wouldn't ask me this.
You'd just say, 'son, i'm sorry - i'm afraid it just won't work.
Cos i'm afraid you'll plunder me - when i'm six feet under earth'".
Come on baby, let's build us a cabin on a mountain in the sky
And have ourselves some children and teach them to be wise
'Cos life is just not living if you're scared to take a risk
Tell me that you'll marry me - tell me with a kiss
