Mary Ellen at the Church turned up, her Ma turned up and her Pa turned up
Her sister Gert and her rich uncle Bert and the Parson with his long white shirt turned up
But no bridegroom with the ring turned up, but a telegraph boy with his nose turned up
Brought a message that read - he didn't want to wed
And you'll find him in the river with his toes turned up.

Also another of the lovely old music hall songs my great aunt Polly sang to us in the 40's:

There was I waiting at the Church, waiting at the Church, waiting at the Church,
When all at once he left me in the lurch, Oh how it did upset me, da da
All at once he sent me round a note, sent me round a note, and this is what he wrote
"I can't get away to marry you today my wife wont let me!"
