I saw my love walking down the aisle

& as he passed me by, he turned & he smiled

The preacher joined their hands

& all the people began to stand

When I shouted: "You know that should have been me

Instead of her walking with you

You know that it should have been me

Getting ready to marry you

Darling, darling

You made a promise that we'd never part

& then you turned around & broke my heart

Now you're standing there saying 'I do'

Holding hands with somebody new

It should have been me

Instead of her standing by you

You know that it should have been me

Getting ready to say 'I do'!" Then the preacher asked, "Will there be silence, please?

If any objections to this wedding

Speak now or forever, forever hold your peace"

Then I shouted: "It should have been me

You know that it should have been me

You know that it should have been me

Darling, how could you do this to me?

People let me tell you now

It should have been me

Instead of her standing by you

You know that it should have been me

I've always been faithful & true!"
