Saturday morning jumped out of bed
Bbm Ab Gb
And put on my best suit.
Ab Db
Got in my car and raced like a jet,
Bbm Ab Gb
All the way to you.
Ab Db
Knocked on your door with heart in my hand,
Bbm Ab Gb
To ask you a question,
Ab Db
’Cause I know that you’re an old-fashioned man,
Bbm Ab
Yeah.
Gb Ab
Can I have your daughter for the rest of my life?
Db/F
Say yes, say yes,
Bbm
’Cause I need to know.
Gb Ab
You say, I’ll never get your blessing till the day I die.
Db Ab/C Bbm
Tough luck, my friend, but the answer is no.
Chorus:
Gb Ab
Why you gotta be so rude,
Db Bbm Ab
Don’t you know I’m human too.
Gb Ab
Why you gotta be so rude,
Db Bbm Ab
I’m gonna marry her anyway.

Can’t live without her.

Love me or hate me, we will be boys.

Standing at that altar.

Or we will run away
Bbm Ab Gb
To another galaxy, you know,

You know, she’s in love with me,

She will go anywhere I go.
