The Marrying Kind Lyrics - Musicology - Prince

If you leave her now 

Your never goin to see her again-never 

Now shes gonna need a shoulder to cry on 

Shes gonna need a friend 

Shes gonna need a pillowcase-something to put those tears on 

And I've got some purple satin lacies 

1 seond later than the second your gone 

Shes gonna miss you at first 

But then shes gonna buy me things 

Thats when Im gonna lay her 

'Cross my piano stool and sing to her

Chorus 

Honey I tried to tell him 

That you were the marrying kind 

A faithful one man woman 

The best he would ever find 

I guess he wasnt trying to hear that 

So there aint nothing left to say 

I tried to tell him if you run to me 

I wont run away 

Photos 

If you leave her now 

You'll never get another glimpse 

Im goin to lace her with enough ice to recap the poles 

There might be another solar eclipse 

Shes gonna find... 

bath water hot enough to be touched(oh man, porkchop is hurtin) 

Im gonna put her on the same diet Missy went on 

You know she eat too much 

Tonight, shes gonna miss you at first 

But then she'll get used to me 

All of the tricks I would try 

To make her take this ring and make love to me 

Chorus 

Run away 

Dont run away
