For a taste of love that's shining in your eyes

I'll be there just as sure as you're born

If the good Lord's willing and the creek stays low
     E
I'll be there a knockin' at your door
       B7                              E
With a hug and a kiss for the one I idolize

Get all of my working done 'cause tonight we're gonna have lots of fun
        E
Just as sure as there ever was a preacher man
     A
I'll be there with a ring for your hand
                          B7                  E
If the good Lord's willing and the creek don't rise
