If Your Father Lets Me

Girl I've been thinking 'bout a future for two Every road I

take keeps leading to you From the first time we met I

knew somehow You're the one I want standing beside me now We've

watched sunsets fade across the fields Shared our hopes and dreams and

all we feel And every day my heart believes You're everything I'll

ever need

Girl I wanna marry you if your father lets me Put a

ring on your hand and call you my family Stand on a

porch and watch the years roll by With your hand in mine

beneath these country skies I wanna build a life that's strong and

true Spend every season loving you Girl I wanna marry you if

your father lets me And promise you my heart for eternity

I've been practicing what I'm gonna say When I knock on his

door one of these days

A little nervous but I know it's right 'Cause you're the girl

I dream about every night I'll look him in the eye and

tell him plain I'll love his daughter through sunshine and rain

I'll work hard and give my best And cherish her more than

I'll ever express

Girl I wanna marry you if your father lets me Put a

ring on your hand and call you my family Stand on a

porch and watch the years roll by With your hand in mine

beneath these country skies

One day we'll laugh about this old town scene The nervous young

man and the hopes and dreams And when you say I do

I'll know it's true

The best thing in my life

will always be you

Girl I wanna marry you if your father lets me Put a

ring on your hand and call you my family

Through every road ahead

wherever life may be

I'll thank the Lord for bringing you to me

So until that day I'll keep holding on Praying our love keeps

growing strong

Girl I wanna marry you if your father lets me

And love you for all eternity
