Arlo Guthrie Wedding Song Lyrics

Wedding Song Lyrics

words and music by Arlo Guthrie



Poor Adam alone in Eden

Taking off his shoes

Tired of running around all morning

From his animal interviews



He awoke with a hand on his brow

Askign who are you

They spent the rest of their lives together

Making their debuts

Dressed in leaves and wearing blues



Some say one thing, some say two

Ain't much about it anyone can do

Keep on walking till my soles wear through

Wearing away my shoes



Evening comes and the sky turns red

Clouds of colors cover up our heads

Ain't it something just to lie here in bed

Just me and you



Oh Mary, wrapped up in glory

What are you going to tell your groom

How's he going to feel on the day of your wedding

What will your friends assume



Oh, but Joseph and Mary were married

The angels carried the news

What the Lord has joined together

The world must not undo



Thene's a wedding down at the church this morning

Let's uo wish them well

It's a beautiful day for getting married

I hope the weather lasts as well



It's been years since we've been married

I know we paid some dues

Now ain't it something just to lie here together

Just me and you

Outlasting the blues
