I saw my love walking down the aisle
And as he passed me by
He turned to me and gave me a smile
I just had to cry

Then the preacher
He began to say (what did he say?)
If there is anyone who
Objects to this marriage
I want you to raise your hand

Wait a minute, stop the track Mike
This is not the way I wanna do it

Yo Eddie, kick it!
This is not the way I wanna sing this song

Ah ah oh oh
Ay-yi-yi 

I saw my love walking down the aisle
And as he passed me by
He turned to me and gave me a smile
I just had to sigh

Then the preacher, then the preacher
He joined their hands
All the people, all of the people
They began to stand
When I shouted

It should have been me
(Should've been me) oh oh oh
It should have been me
(Why not me?)
It should have been me
(Should've been me) oh woh oh
It should have been me
(Why not me?) Oh oh oh oh

It should have been, could have been
(Should've been me)
It should have been, could have been
(Why not me?)

We made a promise that we'd never part
And now you break my heart
(You breaking my heart)
And you're standing there
Saying that I do
Holding hands with somebody new

And then the preacher 
Asked for silence please
Don't nobody speak

It should have been me
(Should've been me) oh oh oh
It should have been me
(Why not me?) I said, I said
It should have been me
(Should've been me) oh woh oh
It should have been me
(Why not me?) Oh oh oh oh

It should have been, could have been
(Should've been me)
It should have been, could have been
(Why not me?)
It should have been, could have been
(Should've been me)
It should have been, could have been
(Why not me?)

Should've been the one that he would love
Why am I not the one that he would love

What did I do, what did I say, to make you go away (x4)

It should have been me
(Should've been me) oh oh oh
It should have been me
(Why not me?) I said, I said
It should have been me
(Should've been me) oh woh oh
It should have been me
(Why not me?) Oh oh oh oh

It should have been, could have been
(Should've been me)
It should have been, could have been
(Why not me?)
It should have been, could have been
(Should've been me)
It should have been, could have been
(Why not me?)
