Saturday mornin'

jumped out of bed

and put on my best suit

got in my car

and raced like a jet

all the way to you

Knocked on your door

with heart in my hand

to ask you a question

'cause I know that you're

an old-fashioned man, yeah

Can I have your daughter

for the rest of my life

say yes, say yes

'cause I need to know

You say, I'll never get

your blessin' 'til the day I die

tough luck, my friend

but the answer is no

Why you gotta be so rude

don't you know I'm human too

why you gotta be so rude

I'm gonna marry her anyway

Marry that girl

marry her anyway

marry that girl

yeah, no matter what you say

Marry that girl

and we'll be a family

why you gotta be so rude

I hate to do this

you leave no choice

can't live without her

love me or hate me

we will be both

standin' at that altar

Or we will run away

to another galaxy, you know

you know

she's in love with me

she will go anywhere I go

Can I have your daughter

for the rest of my life

say, yes, say, yes

'cause I need to know

You say, I'll never get

your blessin' 'til the day I die

tough luck, my friend

'cause the answer's still no

Why you gotta be so rude

don't you know I'm human too

why you gotta be so rude

I'm gonna marry her anyway

Marry that girl

marry her anyway

marry that girl

no matter what you say

Marry that girl

and we'll be a family

why you gotta be so rude

rude

Can I have your daughter

for the rest of my life

say, yes, say, yes

'cause I need to know

You say, I'll never get

your blessin' 'til the day I die

tough luck, my friend

but no, still means no

Why you gotta be so rude

don't you know I'm human too

why you gotta be so rude

I'm gonna marry her anyway

Marry that girl

marry her anyway

marry that girl

no matter what you say

Marry that girl

and we'll be a family

why you gotta be so rude

why you gotta be so rude

why you gotta be so rude
