Subject: Lyr Add: JUST GOT MARRIED
If I had to guess, based on the sound of it, I'd say this was a Hank Williams song, but I can't confirm that. My searches have turned up nothing. Anyway, here's my best crack at a transcription:

JUST GOT MARRIED

Well, if I seem a little daffy,
It's because I'm so happy.
Got a whole lot o' joy in my life.
If I'm actin' kinda silly,
Let me tell ya somethin', will ye,
Brother, I been doin' all right.

It may sound funny
'Cause we ain't got no money.
We're livin' in paradise.
A man told us how
We're family now
And we just got married last night.

I don't know how we'll make it but I know we will.
It took all I had to pay the bill.
We'll be doin' all right till the rent comes due.
We'll live on love for a month or two.

...lovin'
...turtle-dovin'
We started I-doin' it right.
She's a ...
And a ...
And we just got married last night.

Well, I talked her daddy
Then I said "Are you ready?"
And my baby didn't have to think twice.
We were down by the river
So we jumped in the flivver
And we went and got married last night.
