Try as she might, she can't get her mind off him. The narrator begs the man to squeeze her hand, kiss her cheek, dry any tears she cries, etc., to show her that he's hers. When the preacher gives the guests their opportunity to voice any objections they have, the narrator shouts that she should have been the bride. I don't know why any bride or groom would invite anyone who is likely to object to a wedding, but I hope the narrator in this case didn't come uninvited. The tempo is moderately fast.
Hands clap on almost every second and fourth beat.
The narrator anticipated that someday her boyfriend would dump her, and now her prediction has come true. Instead of shedding a single tear, she tells him that he can never come back to her. The narrator feels good because she has just received a letter from her boyfriend, in which he says he is on his way home. This moderate-tempoed song opens with a drum solo resembling the clanking of pans. Horns of all tones play, and the piano rolls rapidly and merrily.
