Take Time To Know Her

[00:00.04] This is my story
[00:15.58] And every word of it is true
[00:20.65] I found a woman
[00:25.03] I thought I truly loved
[00:29.83] She was everything
[00:33.08] I'd ever been dreaming of
[00:39.55] When she was bad
[00:41.05] I didn't know it
[00:43.47] And her pretty smile never did show it
[00:48.42] All I knew was what I could see
[00:52.31] And I knew I wanted her for me
[00:58.11] I took her home to mama
[01:00.74] Mama wanted to see my future bride
[01:07.46] She looked at us both
[01:09.22] And called me to her side
[01:14.33] She said, "Son, take time to know her
[01:21.03] It's not an overnight fling
[01:24.21] Take time to know her
[01:29.17] Please don't rush into this thing."
[01:34.82] I didn't listen to mama
[01:39.83] I went straight to the church
[01:44.53] I just couldn't wait to have
[01:45.98] That little girl of mine
[01:49.05] When I got off from work
[01:52.79] The preacher was there
[01:53.94] And so was my future bride
[01:56.39] He looked at us both
[01:57.37] And then he called me to his side
[01:59.48] He said, "Son, take time to know her
[02:06.68] It's not an overnight fling
[02:09.61] Please take time to know her
[02:15.93] Please don't rush into this thing."
[02:21.27] Well, it looked like everything
[02:22.56] Was gonna turn out alright
[02:25.86] Then I came home a little early one night
[02:30.61] There she was kissing on another man
[02:34.54] Now I know what mama meant
[02:35.82] When she took me by the hand
[02:37.48] She said, "Son, take time to know her
[02:44.31] It's not an overnight fling
[02:46.45] Take time to know her
[02:52.18] Please don't rush into this thing."
[02:57.03] Take time to know her
[03:03.19] It's not an overnight fling
[03:06.35] Take time to know her
[03:10.86] Please don't rush into this thing
