[Verse 1]
You think this band, on my left hand
Don't really mean anything to me
You think you're here just to be convenient
And you're just around to please me
You think you're plain, and that is so strange
'Cause everyone else can sure see, that you
Are truly beautiful, and you mean everything to me

[Chorus]
And all jokes aside, I want you by my side
For the rest of my life, always be my bride
No, I ain't kiddin' around, 'till they put me in the ground
I'll love you for all time, all jokes aside

[Verse 2]
Now I know that I'm not the perfect husband
But I've done the best that I can
Honey if that is not good enough
Don't worry 'cause I'll understand
And for every-time that I've ever hurt you
I'll probably answer to the man
And my heart's full of pride, 'cause I'm serious tonight
I just wanna keep this ring on my hand

[Chorus]
And all jokes aside, I want you by my side
For the rest of my life, always be my bride
No, I ain't kiddin' around, 'till they put me in the ground
I'll love you for all time
And I'm serious tonight, all jokes aside
