Cause you're handsome like to talk and a whole lot of fun

But now your girl's gone a missin'
Am/F# D G
And your house has got an empty bed
Am Am/G
The folks'll wonder 'bout the wedding

They won't listen to a word you said
[Chorus]
G
Gonna take your mama out all night
F
Yeah we'll show her what it's all about
C
We'll get her jacked up on some cheap champagne
G
We'll let the good times all roll out
G
And if the music ain't good, well it's just too bad
