Your mamma thinks I'm lazy,

your daddy runs down my name

But you said you'd love me,

come sunshine or come rain

Well I'll hold you to it Julie,

don't you fret and pout

This story has a happy ending

even though for now



CHORUS



This Romeo ain't got Julie yet

I love you so and you can bet

I'd follow you to Timbuktu

like Scarlett followed Rhett

But this Romeo ain't got Julie yet



Just meet me 'round the old man's

barn 'bout ten o'clock tonight

I'll have my chevy humming

and take you for a ride

Throw the dog a big ole bone

and make sure your bags are packed

We're headed for that silver moon

and may never come back



CHORUS



Yeah, I'd follow you to Timbuktu

like Scarlett followed Rhett

But this Romeo ain't got Julie yet
