Version 1 of the lyrics

1  I played a wedding for the money   I played a wedding for the money, 1
2  And I wished that I could've told the bride and groom   and I wished       I could tell the bride and groom 2
  Just what I think of marriage  Just what I think of marriage
3  And what’s in store after their honeymoon   And what's in store after their honeymoon. 3
      
4  And I was grumblin’ to the dancers   and I was grumblin' to the dancers 4
5  ’Bout how men and women ought to live apart   'bout how men and women ought to live apart 5
  And how a promise never made can not be broken  And how a promise never made can not be broken
6  And can never break your heart   And can never break a heart 6
      
7  Then suddenly from out of nowhere   then suddenly from out of nowhere, 7
8  A little girl came dancing ’cross the floor   A little girl came dancing 'cross the floor, 8
  And all her crinolines were billowing  And all her crinolines were billowing
9  Beneath the skirt of calico that she wore   Beneath the skirt of calico that she wore. 9
1  Oh what a joy fell on the honored guests1
2  As each of them was drawn into her dream,2
3  And they laughed and stamped and clapped the hands3
4  And hollered at her "Dance little Jean"4
      
10  And oh what a joy fell on the honored guests   Dance, little Jean, this day is for you,                  10
11  As each of them was drawn inside her dream        Two people you love, stood up to say "I do" 11
1  And they laughed and stomped and clapped their hands   1
2  And hollered at her dance little Jean   2
3   3
4  And they said dance, little Jean, this day is for you   4
5  Two people you love, stood up and said I do   5
  Dance little Jean, the prayer that you had  Dance little Jean, the prayer that you had
12  Was answered today your mama’s marrying your dad   Was answered today                                      12
5  Your mama's marrying your dad5
      
  Well, my cynical heart just melted  Well, my cynical heart just melted
13  ’Cause I figured what this get together meant   'Cause I knew what this get together meant 13
  How it ended year of tears and sad confusion  How it ended year of tears and sad confusion
14  That the little girl had spent   That the little girl had spent. 14
15                                                  and they told the band to pack it up 15
16  And they told the band to pack it up   About time       the couple cut the cake,     16
6  About the time the couple cut the cake   6
  But we played as long as they stayed  But we played as long as they stayed
17  For love and laughs and little Jeanie’s sake   For love and laughs and little Jeanie's sake. 17
      
18  And we played dance, little Jean, this day is for you   Dance,                     little Jean, this day is for you, 18
19  Two people you love, stood up and said I do   Two people you love, stood up and said "I do" 19
20  Dance little Jean, the prayer that you had was answered today   Dance little Jean, the prayer that you had                       20
21  Your mama’s marrying your dad   Was answered today            21
22  It was answered today        Your mama's marrying your dad 22
7  Your mama’s marrying your dad   7
