She wasn't wearing a wedding dressIn a Vegas wedding chapelThey were herding them in and out of thereLike they were cattleNot exactly the fairytaleThat she had plannedBut mama said, "Aren't you supposed to get married, girlBefore you bring a baby in this world?"And all she could say was, "Yes, ma'am"She called her from that chapel in Love LandShe said, "Mama, I really love this man"Love LandSeemed like a lifetimeDriving from Vegas to OklahomaIf you're allowed a number of mistakes in lifeShe said, "Maybe I filled my quarter"They called in a reception saying, "You did the right thing"But they smiled, their broken smiles saidWho needs to walk down the aisleAs she showed off her wedding ringThey walked away hand in hand to Love LandShe said, "I really love this man"Love LandAmazing all the progress we've madeSince the days of Thomas EdisonStill only God gives lifeIn spite of modern medicineThe doctors' voices whispered, "We did all that we could doBut your baby wasn't strong enoughTo make it the whole nine months"And as their world broke in twoHe said, "I'll carry you through"To Love LandShe said, "For the longest timeI've blamed myselfThought I was paying for my mistakes"But they tried againNow they're watching himAll three candles outHe's daddy's little manShe said, "Only God could'vePlanned the steps I've takenThat led me to where I am"Love Land
