I wanna settle down I wanna settle down Won't you settle down with me? Settle down We can settle at a table A table for two Won't you wine and dine with me? Settle down I wanna raise a child I wanna raise a child Won't you raise a child with me Raise a child We'll call her Nebraska Nebraska Jones She'll have your nose Just so you know I wanna settle down I wanna settle down Won't you settle down with me? Settle down Run from Angela Vickers I saw her with you Monday morning small talking on the avenue She's got a fancy car She wants to take you far From the city lights and sounds deep into the dark Star so light and star so bright First star i see tonight! Star so light and star so bright Keep him by side! I wanna settle down I wanna settle down Baby there's no need to run I'll love you well I wanna settle down It's time to bring you down On just one knee for now Lets make our vows
