Well, he in the pawn shop, one thing on his mind to buy a diamond but he doesn't have a dime He finds the one he likes and cut him quite a deal A two carat but neither one's real
up the pay phone, puts it to his ear Calls his chick, collect and says, "Get here"
When he shows his girlfriend, she can't her eyes She never thought she'd ever really get one that He tries to think of when she asked him "where'd you get it?" at diffie's pawn but he never will admit it
He tries to change the subject, "Forget the wedding head on out to Vegas and get it over with"

Just outside of Vegas, the truck a flat She says, "We woulda made it if you weren't so fat" They try to hitch a ride some hippies in a van To a ratty little motel called S and M grand'
