I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
Well the bride looked a picture In the gown that her mama wore
When she was married herself
Nearly 27 years before
They had to change the style a little
But it looked just fine
Stayed up all night
But they got it finished just in time
Now on the arm of her daddy
She's walkin' down the aisle
I see her catch my eye
And give me a secret smile
Maybe it's too old fashioned
But we once were close friends
Oh but the way that she looks today
She never could've then
Well I can see her now In her tight blue jeans
Pumpin' all her money In the record machine
Spinnin' like a top
You should have seen her go
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
Well her proud daddy
Only wanna give his little girl the best
And so he put down a grand
On a cozy little lover's nest
You could have called her reception
An unqualified success
At a flash hotel
For a 150 guests
Well take a look at the bridegroom
Smillin' pleased as pie
Shakin' hands all around
With a glassy look in his eye
He got a real good job
And his shirt and tie is nice
But I remember a time
When she never would've looked at him twice
Well I can see her now
Drinkin' with the boys
Breakin' their hearts like they were toys
She used to do the pony
Used to do the stroll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
Well I can see her now
With her Walkman on
Jumpin' up and down
To her favorite song
I still remember when she used to
Want to make a lot of noise
Hoppin' and a boppin'
With the street corner boys
She used to want to party
Used to want to go
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to do the pony
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to wanna party
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll

Used to listen to the 'Basher' album in the car with the kids on long vacation drives. When they were little, my girls used to say "Daddy, will you dance with me at my wedding to "I Knew the Bride"? Of course I said yes. So fast forward to wedding day (1 down, 1 to go) and she and I did our Father/Daughter dance to "I Knew the Bride"... 5 months later, my kids took me to a Nick Lowe/Los StraightJackets concert at a small intimate club, and when they played this song, my daughter came up with me to the front of the stage and we danced together again... with Nick looking down and laughing with us.... such fun.

[@LazyIRanch]

I'm sorry for the loss of you dad, who had great taste in music. My fiance and I planned a simple wedding, at the little church built in 1882 that my great grandparents attended, the reception would be 1/2 mile up the dirt road at Freyburg Hall, the community hall and biergarten my great-grandfather built around the same time. It has a little stage where my brother's band would play. I had one request: I wanted them to play this song, but I wanted to sing it! I really was going to wear the "gown that my Momma wore", but without any changes. My fiance died unexpectedly in 1989, before that day we planned. Two years later, I did get married, but at the courthouse. I did wear momma's dress, but that day wasn't joyous. worst mistake of my life. Long ago, but I wish I could go back and change it. I only had one true love, so I shouldn't have settled for less.

[@adingoatemybaby498]

I'm a little surprised. As a man, to me it's a sad commentary on how many women choose the safe, boring guy to marry. The line that kills me is "I remember a time when she never would have looked at him twice." That's about "settling," not about settling down.

Yes, I heard that a time or two at weddings (fortunately, ones at which I work). The only times I've danced at weddings were with my sister at her first wedding, and once with a very pregnant bridegroom. Both occasions to ROCK LOBSTER. On both occasions, we were the only people on the dance floor, as we knew the old folks were all waiting for more painfully slow country songs. I was very careful to avoid any impression I was straight, so I limited my dancing at weddings, and could never get any boys to dance. :)

Isn't a NL wedding without this song. Gets everyone out on the floor without a doubt!
