[Verse 1]
We're gettin' married but they don't know me
I wanna meet them
You never talk about your family
Must be a problem
No more excuses, I'm tired of hiding
Get in the car, today we gon' tell them
I might say

[Pre-Chorus]
'Can I have your daughter for the rest of my life?'
Say yes say yes, cause I need to know
He said 'there's a reason why there is black and white'
It's a no-no, no no no no no

[Chorus]
Why you gotta be so cruel? I don't get this world anymore
Can't you see I'm human too?
Before I walk out the door I'mma
Marry your girl
Marry her anyway
We'll never run away
Marry your girl
Marry her anyway
So why you gotta be so cruel?
[Verse 2]
I hate to do this, you give me no choice (can't live without her)
When you turn around and listen to my voice (do you hear any ?)
I met her earlier [?] from another galaxy
If she's in love with me, that's how you raised her to be, so

[Pre-Chorus]
'Can I have your daughter for the rest of my life?'
Say yes say yes, cause I need to know
He said 'there's a reason why there is black and white'
It's a no-no-no, no no no no no

[Chorus]
Why you gotta be so cruel? I don't get this world anymore
Can't you see I'm human too?
Before I walk out the door I'mma
Marry your girl
Marry her anyway
We'll never run away
Marry your girl
Marry her anyway
So why you gotta be so cruel?

[Instrumental break]

[Pre-Chorus]
'Can I have your daughter for the rest of my life?'
Say yes say yes, cause I need to know
He said 'not even if I come out blind'
It's a no-no-no, I don't trust you people
[Chorus]
Why you gotta be so cruel? I don't get this world anymore
Can't you see I'm human too?
Before I walk out the door I'mma
Marry your girl
Marry her anyway
We'll never run away
Marry your girl
Marry her anyway
So why you gotta be so cruel?
