The birds were squawking
People were talking, I was walking
And I could barely hear
Whispering, right in my ear
Your mama don't like
Your daddy don't like me
Your grandma put that pistol to my head
When she caught me fixing up your bed
I've been working at this hotel
Since I was fifteen
Ain't no way in hell
I ever thought I'd kiss the queen
It must be fate
Summer sun it never sets too late
Boy it's just me and Kate
Dreaming our lives away
When Will takes out his hunting hounds
That's when she's winking her milky browns
At me, won't you meet me
At a quarter to three
Sweating like a hornet swarm
Sweating in that bellhop uniform
She said, "Son get down, on your knees"
Mama was a sailor,
Lost somewhere at sea
Daddy was a tailor,
Somewhere he's so proud of me
It must be fate
Summer sun it never sets too late
Boy it's just me and Kate
Dreaming our lives away
Oh she said honey I got a plan
I'm gonna store you
In a room at Buckingham
You know Will gave me his hand
He's going to be my king
You're gonna be my back door man
It must be fate
Summer sun it never sets too late
Boy it's just me and Kate
Dreaming our lives away
Backdoor man, backdoor man
Ain't that a sweet old plan
For a man like me
You're gonna put me on - salary
Ain't no reason, hang us for treason
Ain't it the season, to swing away
Ain't got nothing more
To say about it babe
When they finally caught us
They threw us in the stockade
They stoned and spat upon us
But honey, child, we got it made
It must be fate
Summer sun it never sets too late
Boy it's just me and Kate
Dreaming our lives away
It must be fate
Summer sun it never sets too late
Boy it's just me and Kate
Dreaming our lives away
