Lyrics

I'm much too young to marry-o, marry-o, marry-o... But if I should marry-o, then I would marry you. When I was just a boy of nine, I fell in love with Adeline; I kissed her tender lips of wine, and then I ran away. Singin' Ring-A-Ling-A-Lario, what am I to do? I'm much too young to marry-o, marry-o, marry-o... But if I could marry-o, oh I would marry you. When I was only seventeen, I fell in love with Bernardine, I kissed her on the village green, and then I ran away. Singin' Ring-A-Ling-A-Lario, what am I to do? I'm much too young to marry-o, marry-o, marry-o... But if I could marry-o, oh I would marry you. When I had grown to twenty-two, I fell in love with Mary Lou, I tried to run but I was through, she stole my heart away. Singin Ring-A-Ling-A-Lario, this is what I'll do You're old enough to marry-o, marry-o, marry-o Old enough to marry-o And I will marry you This is ancient history, my family numbers 23 And all of them take after me, they kiss and run away Singin' Ring-A-Ling-A-Lario, what am I to do? I'm old enough to marry-o, marry-o, marry-o... But if I should marry-o, then I would marrry you. But if I could marry-o, then I would marry you.
