Saturday morning jumped out of bed and put on my best suit

Got in my car, raced like a jet, all the way to you

Knocked on your door with heart in my hand

To ask you a question

'Cause I know that you're an old-fashioned man

Yeah, yeah



Can I have your daughter for the rest of my life? 

Say yes, say yes, 'cause I need to know

You say I'll never get your blessing till the day I die

Tough luck, my friend, but the answer is no!



Why you gotta be so rude

Don't you know I'm human too

Why you gotta be so rude

I'm gonna marry her anyway

Marry that girl, marry her anyway

Marry that girl, no matter what you say

Marry that girl, and we'll be a family

Why you gotta be so rude



I hate to do this, you leave no choice

I can't live without her

Love me or hate me, we will be boys

Standing at that altar

Or we will run away, to another galaxy you know

You know she's in love with me

She will go anywhere I go



Can I have your daughter for the rest of my life? 

Say yes, say yes, 'cause I need to know

You say I'll never get your blessing till the day I die

Tough luck, my friend, 'cause the answer's still no!



Why you gotta be so rude

Don't you know I'm human too

Marry that girl, marry her anyway

Marry that girl, no matter what you say

Marry that girl, and we'll be a family

Say yes, say yes, 'cause I need to know

You say I'll never get your blessing till the day I die

Tough luck, my friend, but no still means no!
