 James, James hold the ladder steady

 James, James Im packed tonight Im ready

 James, James hold the ladder steady

 Im acomin?down to your ar-ar-ar-rms

 Im acomin?down to your arms.

 

 Now James and I we went to mama and showed her my diamond ring

 She said my poor little baby, you must be crazy, to think of such a thinge
ladder steady

 James, James Im packed tonight Im ready

 James, James hold the ladder steady

 Im acomin?down to your ar-ar-ar-rms

 Im acomin?down to your arms.

 

 Id hate to see em in the morning when they both completely flip

 Hell be sayin?they caint? shell be feeling faint

 And Ill be kissing my husbands lips

 

 So James, James hold the ladder steady

 James, James Im packed tonight Im ready

 James, James hold the ladder steady

 Im acomin?down to your ar-ar-ar-rms

 Im acomin?down to your arms.

 

 FADE

 James, James hold the ladder steady

 James, James Im packed tonight Im ready

 James, James hold the ladder steady
