Baby's getting married at the Taco Bell She don't like her daddy, can go to Hell 'Cause he don't let go, he sees That she loves that boy, 'cause he dreams about her Running through the streets of Philadelphia Never thought he'd see the day he married her 'Cause he drives a limousine And she was the hometown pageant queen
