 G
I Played a wedding for the money  
 G                                          C
And I wish I could have told the bride and groom 
           D7
Just what I think of marriage  
 D7                              G
And what's in store after their honeymoon 
 
 G
And I was grumblin' to the dancers  
 G                                      C
About how men and women ought to live apart 
       D7
And how a promise never made can not be broken  
 D7                        G
And can never break a heart 
 
 G
Then suddenly from out of nowhere  
 G                                          C
A little girl came dancing 'cross the floor 
     D7
And all her crinolines were billowing  
 D7                                G
Beneath the skirt of calico she wore 
 
 G
And Oh what a joy fell on the honored guests  
 G                                    C
As each one of them was drawn into her dream 
          D7
And they laughed and stamped and clapped their hands  
 D7                                 G
And hollered at her "dance little Jean" 
 
           C                         D7          G
And they said dance little Jean this day is for you 
      Em                  A7          D7
Two people you love stood up to say I do 
 C                     D7                 G      C
Dance little Jean that prayer that you had was answered today 
      D7                    G
Your Mamma's marryin' your dad 
 
 G
Well my cynical heart just melted  
 G                                    C
'Cause I figured what this get together meant 
            D7
And how it ended years of tears  
 D7                                            G
And sad confusion that the little girl had spent 
 
 G 
And they told the band to pack it up  
 G                                  C
About the time the couple cut the cake 
        D7
But we played as long as they stayed  
 D7                                        G
For love and laughs and little Jeanie's sake 
 
           C                         D7         G
And we played dance little Jean this day is for you
