Walter Songtext
von Blue Dogs

Well, the first time that I ever saw her
I picked her up in my Chevy Malibu
Goin′ to the grocery for her mother
For a loaf of bread and a Pepsi-Cola too
She was young and so kind-hearted
That she wrecked my world and left me with the blues
She called me "sugar," I knew that when we parted
I knew just what I was gonna do

Then I saw her standing at the altar
Mm-hmm, of everlasting life
Standing there with a boy named Walter
Expecting her to be his wife
Little did I know my heart was breaking
And I could not say a thing
When the preacher posed the final question
And I heard those church bells ring


She got in and she rolled down the window
Said, "May turn it up, I love that country tune"
She was wearing a rabbit-skin halter
And I was overcome by the smell of her perfume

Then I saw her standing at the altar
Mm-hmm, of everlasting life
Standing there with a boy named Walter
Expecting her to be his wife
Little did I know my heart was breaking
And I could not say a thing
When the preacher posed the final question
And I heard those church bells ring

Then I saw her standing at the altar
Mm-hmm, of everlasting life
Standing there with a boy named Walter
Expecting her to be his wife
Little did I know my heart was breaking
And I could not say a thing
When the preacher man posed the final question
