G
Played a wedding for the money 
                                           C
And I wish I could have told the bride and groom
          D7
Just what I think of marriage
                               G
What's in store after the honeymoon
I was rumbling through the verses 
                                      C
About how men and women ought to live apart
      D7
How a promise never made could not be broken 
                        G
And would never break a heart
Suddenly from out of nowhere
                                          C
This little girl came spinning across the floor
    D7
Her crinolines were billowing
                                G
Beneath the skirt of calico she wore
As her joy fell on the honored guests
                                    C
Each one of them was drawn into her dream
         D7
And they laughed and stamped and clapped their hands 
                                 G
And hollered at her dance little Jean
          C                                 G
They said dance little Jean this day is for you
                         A7                D7
Two people that you love stood up to say I do
C                                     G                C
Dance little Jean the prayer that you had was answered today
     D7                    G
Your Momma's marrying your dad
Well this cynic's heart just melted
                                    C
As I figured what this get together meant
           D7
And how it ended years of tears 
                                            G
And sad confusions that the little girl had spent
They told the band to pack it up
                                  C
About the time the couple cut the cake
       D7
But we stayed and we played all night long 
                                        G
For love and laughs and little Jeanie's sake
          C                                 G
We played dance little Jean this day is for you
                         A7                D7
Two people that you love stood up to say I do
C                                     G                C
Dance little Jean the prayer that you had was answered today
     D7                    G
Your Momma's marrying your dad
        C                                 G
We sang dance little Jean this day is for you
                         A7                D7
Two people that you love stood up to say I do
C                                     G                C
Dance little Jean the prayer that you had was answered today
     D7                    G
Your momma's marrying your dad
