No Wedding Bells For Joe

Next Tuesday was to be the season's big event by far
Sweet Nellie Jean upon that day would marry Joseph Carr
Now, Joe was all excited as he hurried to and fro
Then came the note his sweetheart wrote
No wedding bells for Joe

No wedding bells for Joe come Tuesday mornin'
No wedding bells for Joe come Tuesday night
She broke his heart with just a piece of paper
To change her mind, she said she had the right

Now, Joe is brokenhearted and so lonely
The whole town sympathizes but they know
Whatever else may happen on next Tuesday
There just won't be no wedding bells for Joe

Now, Joe is brokenhearted and so lonely
The whole town sympathizes but they know
Whatever else may happen on next Tuesday
There just won't be no wedding bells for Joe
