I Didn't Want to Fall Lyrics

Could it be, could it happen
Golly gee, caught me a nappin'
Humpty dumpty on the wall
Had nothing on me at all
I declare it isn't fair
I didn't want to fall
Wife and marriage, baby carriage
Not for me at all

Every day it seems
I went 'round in dreams
Never knowing love would find me
Just a sneaking up behind me

So I guess we better dress
To face the preacher man
I can't wait to place
A wedding band upon your hand

Cause I tumbled hard, overhead my dear
And I think I hear love's call
Though I admit I didn't want to fall
I didn't want to fall in love
Wasn't ready for the leap
Didn't wanna fall in love
Too many promises to keep

I declare it isn't fair
I didn't want to fall
Wife and marriage, baby carriage
Not for me at all

Every day I went
'round in self content
A-never knowing love would find me
Just a sneaking up behind me
So I guess we better dress
To face the preacher man
I can't wait to place
A wedding band upon your hand

Cause I tumbled hard, overhead my dear
And I think I hear love's call, ding dong
[I hear those wedding bells a-ringing, dong, ding, dong]
Though I admit I didn't want to fall
I declare I didn't want to fall
(I don't want to stall)
I declare I didn't want to fall
