Saturday morning, jumped out of bed and put on my best suit
Got in my car and raced like a jet all the way to you
Knocked on your door with heart in my hand
To ask you a question
Because I know that you´re an old-fashioned man, yeah yeah

Can I have your daughter for the rest of my life?
(Say yes, say yes)
Because I need to know
You say I´ll never get your blessings until the day I die
"Tough luck, my friend, but the answer is no!"

Why you gotta be so rude?
Don´t you know I´m human too
Why you gotta be so rude
I´m gonna marry her anyway
Marry that girl
Marry her anyway
Marry that girl
Yeah, no matter what you say
Marry that girl
And we´ll be a family

Why you gotta be so rude

I hate to do this, you leave no choice
I can´t live without her
Love me or hate me, we will be boys
Standing at that altar
Or we will run away
To another galaxy, you know
You know she´s in love with me
She will go anywhere I go

Can I have your daughter for the rest of my life?
(Say yes, say yes)
Because I need to know
You say I´ll never get your blessings until the day I die
"Tough luck, my friend, because the answer´s still no!"

Why you gotta be so rude?
Don´t you know I´m human too
Why you gotta be so rude
I´m gonna marry her anyway
Marry that girl
Marry her anyway
Marry that girl
Yeah, no matter what you say
Marry that girl
And we´ll be a family

Why you gotta be so rude?

Can I have your daughter for the rest of my life?
(Say yes, say yes)

"Tough luck, my friend, but no still means no!"

Why you gotta be so rude?
Don´t you know I´m human too
Why you gotta be so rude
I´m gonna marry her anyway
Marry that girl
Marry her anyway
Marry that girl
Yeah, no matter what you say

Why you gotta be so rude?
