Why Not Me
WHY NOT ME
Fred Knoblock
Iâll take another wedding in stride
Hereâs another June wedding
Iâm sittin?on the brideâs side...again
Why do they always have to play that song?
You know the one
Itâs funny, but we never get to sing along
Her daddyâs got her by one arm
I used to have her by the other
At least until she found another lover and then another
Why not me?
We had a real love
She just didnât think we could put it all together
Why not me?
We had a real love
But in a flash, sheâs gone forever
Well, I think weâre all here
I see Bill and Charlie
No, wait -- Eddie got smart
He had a golf game, and he just had to go to it
Why do they always have to ask that question?
You know the one
Should I speak now or forever hold my peace of mind?
Why not me?
We had a real love
She just didnât think we could put it all together
Why not me?
We had a real love
But in a flash, sheâs gone forever, gone forever
And the ceremony is grand
But old lovers never get to make a last stand
And I held some rice in my hand
I let it fall to the floor
I just donât care anymore
Iâll just get drunk at the reception
I wonât think about her twice
Iâll just say, âCongratulations. You both look real nice, real nice.?
