Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Mama called again today, all upset and in a state
'Bout the guest list that ain't coming, and the cake we won't be cutting
"What about the family name?" Hell, I think we'll be okay
Just you and me at city hall, that's all we need this fall
[Chorus]
Don't need no white dress, just your sweet yes
No diamond rings or fancy things
Our love ain't measured by the bill we pay
Just wanna hear you say "okay"
[Verse 2]
Sister's pissed about her dress, says we're being selfish
Daddy's talking 'bout tradition, bank account's in remission
Thirty thousand down the drain? Baby, are they all insane?
Could buy a house or pay some bills, instead of frills and wedding bells
[Chorus]
Don't need no white dress, just your sweet yes
No diamond rings or fancy things
Our love ain't measured by the bill we pay
Just wanna hear you say "okay"
[Bridge]
They say we're throwing it away
But what do they know anyway?
Our love ain't built on paper plates
Or matching silverware displays
[Verse 3]
Found your note upon my bed, "Meet me at the courthouse" said
Denim jeans and boots we wore, signed our names and nothing more
Grabbed some beers and pizza too, celebrated me and you
Now we're living life our way, saved that money for a rainy day
[Chorus]
Don't need no white dress, just your sweet yes
No diamond rings or fancy things
Our love ain't measured by the bill we pay
And damn, I love to hear you say "okay"
