There's a ^DWedding in the chapel, And the ^Gbride is oh so happy, And D^Daddy's got a shotgun in his ^Ahand, The ^Dgroom is sweatin' bullets, As the ^Gpriest steps to the pulpit, He's a^Dbout to make this ^Aboy into a ^Dman.

[Chorus]

Sweet ^DJesus in the Garden, Can you ^Ggrant this boy a pardon, For its ^Dtrue he really don't know what he's ^Adone, Better ^Dlock the church door tight, 'Cause at the ^Gslightest crack of light, That ^Dboy is gonna ^Ahit the ground and ^Drun, He's gonna ^Arun he's gonna ^Dfly, (D) He's out the door and down the street, And ^Emhe won't say Good^Abye, the ^DDiapers and the diatribes, Of her ^GDaddy on the ^Drum, That boy is gonna ^Ahit the ground and ^Drun.

[Verse 2] Was it the rubbing or the tugging, Put a bun in Nancy's oven, She's praying she's not starting to show, But the wedding's set for April, and she's known since November, She ain't got hells chance of a ball of snow. [Chorus] [Instrumental] A, D D, Em, A D, G, D D, A, D [Verse 3] What in the Lords name was he thinking, You can't blame this all on drinking, You can count the family teeth upon one hand, By Midnight he was muddled, And her gene pool is a puddle, That boy might be the Daddy of his old man. [Chorus] That boy is gonna hit the ground and run, That boy is gonna hit the ground and run.

Great Big Sea - Hit the ground and run
