[ADELAIDE, spoken]
Nathan, why can't we elope now?
[NATHAN, spoken]
Because—well
I gotta go to a prayer meeting
[ADELAIDE, spoken]
Nathan, this is the biggest lie you've ever told me
[NATHAN, spoken]
But I promise you it's true
[ADELAIDE, spoken]
Ah!
[ADELAIDE]
You promise me this
You promise me that
You promise me anything under the sun
And you give me a kiss
And you're grabbing your hat
And you're off to the races again
[ADELAIDE & NATHAN]
When I think of the time gone by (Adelaide, Adelaide)
When I think of the way I try (Adelaide)
[ADELAIDE]
I could honеstly die
[NATHAN]
Call a lawyer and sue mе, sue me
What can you do me?
I love you
Give a holler and hate me, hate me
Go ahead, hate me
[NATHAN & ADELAIDE]
I love you (The best years of my life)
I was a fool to give to you (Alright already)
[NATHAN]
I'm just a no-goodnik
Alright already, it's true
So nu?
So sue me, sue me
What can you do me?
[NATHAN & ADELAIDE]
I love you (You gamble it here)
[ADELAIDE]
You gamble it there
You gamble on everything, all except me
And I'm sick of you keeping me up in the air
'Til you're back in the money again
[ADELAIDE & NATHAN]
When I think of the time gone by (Adelaide, Adelaide)
When I think of the way I try (Adelaide)
[ADELAIDE]
I could honestly die
[NATHAN]
Serve a paper and sue me, sue me
What can you do me?
I love you
Give a holler and hate me, oh, hate me
Oh, go ahead, huh, hate me
[NATHAN & ADELAIDE]
I love you (When you wind up in jail)
Don't come to me to bail you out (Alright already!)
[NATHAN]
So call a policeman
Alright already, it's true
So nu?
So sue me, sue me
What can you do me?
[NATHAN & ADELAIDE]
I love you (You're at it again)
[ADELAIDE]
You're running the game
I'm not gonna play second fiddle to that
And I'm sick and I'm tired of stalling around
And I'm telling you now that we're through
[ADELAIDE & NATHAN]
When I think of the time gone by (Adelaide, Adelaide)
When I think of the way I try (Adelaide!)
[ADELAIDE]
I could honestly die
[NATHAN]
Sue me, sue me
Shoot bullets through me
I love you
