lyrics

Well, I guess you're getting married
Found you a lady
Back in your high school hometown

And I guess you're in deep now
Got a pretty little home now
And I see her posting pictures all around

So when you ask me,
Hey, won't you come to the wedding?
Said are you kidding me now

And when you ask me,
Hey won't you be in my party
I say no chance in hell
Oh I can tell

You want me as your best woman
Cause I am the best woman
And you tell me I'm your best woman
Cause I am the best you've ever been with

Ohhh

Now, she's calling you baby like
You called me your baby
Now, she's having your baby
And I bet when you made her you called out my name

Hey, maybe I'm what you'll name her
And so then you can tame her
And blame her, and shame her well

So when you call me
Saying, "Oh, she's acting real psycho,
Why can't she be more like you?"
(Why, why, why?)

How can I tell you
This little lady you love can be a real bitch too
All because you

You want me as your best woman
Cause I am the best woman
And you tell me I'm your best woman
Cause I am the best you've ever been with

Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today
Under a God that saw me burn the bride's bouquet
While you stand hand in hand, ring on ring
Praise the Everlasting King
So let the congregation sing

Always in your bed, woman
I'll never be a wed woman
She wears white I wear red, woman
Still I am the best I've ever been

And so you want me as your best woman
Cause I am the best woman
And you tell me I'm your best woman
Cause I am the best you've ever been with
