"Let Nothing Come Between You"
Written by Warren Zevon

When my Mama met my girl
She took me aside
She's a soft-spoken woman 
But she speaks her mind

She said, "De de de de de de de de de de
Let nothing come between you
De de de de de de de de de de
Don't let nothing come between you"

I went to see my friend to ask his advice
He just smiled and said, 
"She's good around the eyes"
But I'd already made up my mind
To let nothing come between us

There are frustrated people in town
Who might envy us and want to bring us down
We know they don't really mean any harm
But that doesn't mean we've gotta 
Let 'em hang around

Got the license, got the ring
Got the blood tests and everything
Putting on my boutonniere
It's her favorite flower
Then I'm walking down the altar 
And I'm gonna take the vow

De de de de de de de de de de
Don't let nothing come between us
De de de de de de de de de de
Don't let nothing come between us

There are frustrated people in town
Who might envy us and want to bring us down
We know they don't really mean us any harm
But that doesn't mean we've gotta 
Let 'em hang around

De de de de de de de de de de
Don't let nothing come between us
I said, de de de de de de de de de de
Don't let nothing come between us

I have advice for the young and old
If I may be so bold
When you find someone to have and hold
Don't let nothing come between you

De de de de de de de de de de
Get together and let nothing come between you
De de de de de de de de de de
Get together and let nothing come between you
De de de de de de de de de de
Get together and let nothing come between you
