It Should Have Been Me

[Verse 1]
I saw my love walking down the aisle
And as he passed me by, he turned and he smiled
Mmm, the preacher joined their hands
And all the people began to stand

[Chorus]
When I shouted
"You know that it should have been me
Instead of her walking with you!
You know that it should have been me
Getting ready to marry you!

[Bridge]
"Darling, darling
You made a promise that we'd never part
Then you turned around and broke my heart
Now you're standing there saying, 'I do'
Holding hands with somebody new

[Chorus]
It should have been me (Hey, hey, hey! It should've been me)
Instead of her standing by you (Hey, hey, hey! It should've been me)
You know that it should have been me (Hey, hey, hey! It should've been me)
Getting ready to say 'I do!'" (Hey, hey, hey! It should've been me)

[Verse 3]
Mmm, then the preacher
Asked that there be silence, please
If any objections to this wedding
Speak now or forever, forever hold your peace

[Chorus]
Then I shouted
"It should have been me! (Should've been me)
You know that it should have been me (Should've been me)
You know that it should have been me (Should've been me)
Darling, how could you do this to me?! (Should've been me)

[Outro]
People let me tell you now
It should have been me (Should've been me)
Instead of her standing by you (Should've been me)
You know that it should have been me (Should've been me)
I've always been faithful and true!" (Should've been me)
