| G | |
| I played a wedding for the money, |
| G | G7 | C | |
| and I | wished that I could | tell the bride and | groom |
| D | D7 | |
| Just | what I thought of | marriage |
| C | G | |
| And | what in store after their hone | ymoon |
| G | |
| and I was | grumblin' to the dancers |
| G | G7 | C | |
| 'bout how | men and women | ought to live | apart |
| D | C | |
| And how a | promise never made can not be | broken |
| D | G | |
| And can | never break your | heart |
| When sudenly from out of nowhere |
| A little girl came dancing 'cross the floor |
| All her crinolines were billowing |
| Beneath the skirt of calico that she wore |
| Oh what a joy fell on the honored guests |
| As each of them was drawn inside her dream |
| And they laughed and clapped and stomped their feet |
| And hollered at her "Dance little Jean" |
| G7 | C | G | |
| Dance, little Jean, this | day is for you |
| G | Em | C | D | |
| two | people you | love, | stood up and said "I | do" |
| C | G | |
| Dance little Jean, the | prayer that you had |
| C | |
| Was an | swered today |
| D7 | G | |
| Your mama's | marrying your | dad |
| Well, my cynical heart just melted |
| 'Cause I knew what this get together meant |
| How it ended year of tears and sad confusion |
| That the little girl had spent |
| Well they told the band to pack it up |
| About the time the couple cut the cake |
| But we played as long as they stayed |
| For love and laughs and little Jeanie's sake |
| (Chorus) |
