Lyrics

  1. Everything is set, skies are blue
    Can’t believe it yet, but it’s true
    I’ll give you just one guess
    My sweet Lorraine said “Yes”
    Waiting for the time, soon to be
    When the bells will chime merrily
    Gee, but I feel proud, want to shout right out loud

Chorus
I’ve just found joy
I’m as happy as a baby boy
With another brand new choo-choo toy
When I’m with my sweet Lorraine
A pair of eyes
That are bluer than the summer skies
When you see them you will realize
Why I love my sweet Lorraine
I’m so happy
When it’s raining I don’t miss the sun
For it’s in my sweetie’s smile
Just to think that I’m the lucky one
Who will lead her down the aisle
Each night I pray
That nobody steals her heart away
Just can’t wait until that happy day
When I marry sweet Lorraine

  1. Oh, the sun is bright, life seems good
    For she said last night, that she would
    There in the garden lane
    I mean my sweet Lorraine
    When that day in June rolls around
    On our honeymoon we’ll be bound
    Can’t wait ’till the day, when I’ll take her away
