Let Nothing Come Between You by Warren Zevon Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When my mama met my girl, she took me aside
She's a soft-spoken woman, but she speaks her mind
She said, "De-de-de-de-de, de-de-de-de-de
Let nothing come between you
De-de-de-de-de, de-de-de-de-de
Don't let nothing come between you"
I went to see my friend to ask his advice
He just smiled and, "She's good around the eyes"
But I'd already made up my mind
Let nothing come between us
[Chorus]
There are frustrated people in town
Who might envy us and wanna bring us down
We know they don't really mean any harm
But that doesn't mean we've gotta let 'em hang around
[Verse 2]
Got the license, got the ring
Got back the blood tests and everything
Puttin' on my boutonniere, it's her favorite flower
And I'm walking down the altar and I'm gonna take the vow
De-de-de-de-de, de-de-de-de-de
Don't let nothing come between us, yeah
De-de-de-de-de, de-de-de-de-de
Don't let nothing come between us
[Chorus]
There are frustrated people in town
Who might envy us and wanna bring us down
We know they don't really mean us any harm
But that doesn't mean we've gotta let 'em hang around
[Bridge]
De-de-de-de-de, de-de-de-de-de
Don't let nothing come between us, I said
De-de-de-de-de, de-de-de-de-de
Don't let nothing come between us
[Verse 3]
I have advice for the young and old
If I may be so bold
When you find someone to have and hold
Don't let nothing come between you, hey
De-de-de-de-de, de-de-de-de-de
Get together and let nothing come between you
De-de-de-de-de, de-de-de-de-de
Get together and let nothing come between you (Do-do-do, do-do-do)
De-de-de-de-de, de-de-de-de-de
Get together and let nothing come between you
De-de-de-de-de, de-de-de-de-de
Get together and let nothing come between you
When my mama met my girl, she took me aside
She's a soft-spoken woman, but she speaks her mind
She said, "De-de-de-de-de, de-de-de-de-de
Let nothing come between you
De-de-de-de-de, de-de-de-de-de
Don't let nothing come between you"
