SHE DIDN'T LET THE INK DRY ON THE PAPER (From Burl Ives's Nashville Years 5-CD set)

Oh I met her in a honky-tonk in Dallas
A little place that's just outside of town
Over one too many beers we discussed it
And decided that we'd like to settle down

So I bought a golden band and got a license
And found a preacher just to make things right
But it ended all too soon, I'm on a one-man honeymoon
And that's how I'm a-gonna spend my wedding night

Oh she didn't let the ink dry on the paper
'Till everything I owned was in her name
No she didn't let the ink dry on the paper
And the honky-tonk in Dallas is to blame.
