Let's Elope Baby lyrics

I met my baby at the bottom of the hill

I said, "Take me with you, I love you still

We got all the things we need tonight

We'll scoot uptown and do the bride"

[Chorus:]

Let's elope, honey

Pa's asleep and ma is too

Let's elope, baby

The preacher is a-waitin' and my heart is true

Standin' there, smootchin' in the cold moonlight

Saw a model A with the lights on bright

Thought it was pa, turn me loose

If it had a-been, he'd a-cooked his goose

[Chorus]

The man in the car said, how about a ride

I'll give you a lift, she'll be your bride

What you say, baby? Let's go right now

Who gives a hoot what pa don't allow?

[Chorus]

Well the Ford went rockin' and boppin' along

Huggin' my sugar while I humm this song

My folks think we're out on a date

They won't know until it's too late

[Chorus]
