written by Warren Zevon 1982 Zevon Music. When my Mama met my girl she took me aside. She's a soft-spoken woman but she speaks her mind. She said "De de de de de de de de de de". Let nothing come between you. De de de de de de de de de de. Don't let nothing come between you". I went to see my friend to ask his advice. He just smiled and "She's good around the eyes.". But I'd already made up my mind. Let nothing come between us. There are frustrated people in town. Who might envy us and try to bring us down. We know they don't really mean any harm. That doesn't mean we've gotta let 'em hang around. Got the license--got the ring. Got back the blood tests and everything. Putting on my boutonniere--It's her favorite flower. Then I'm walking down the altar and I'm gonna take the vow. De de de de de de de de de de. Don't let nothing come between us. De de de de de de de de de de. Don't let nothing come between us. There are frustrated people in town. Who might envy us and try to bring us down. We know they don't really mean any harm. That doesn't mean we've gotta let 'em hang around. I have advice for the young and old. If I may be so bold. When you find someone to have and hold. Don't let nothing come between you. De de de de de de de de de de. Get together and let nothing come between us. De de de de de de de de de de. Get together and let nothing come between us.
