Take Me Out Of This Wedding

This song was specifically written for Chip Baker and Julie Larson who were married between games of a doubleheader with Virginia Tech on May 7, 1991 at homeplate at Howser Stadium. The first game went into extra innings, so it was a nerve-racking experience for all involved. CNN called it the "Play of the Day".

Sung to the tune of "Take Me Out To The Ballgame"
Lyrics by Dayton Owens

Take me out of this wedding.
Take me out of here now.

Find me a place where it's safe to hide.
I want to back out, and I can't face my bride.

So it's cold, cold feet for the bridegroom,
My hangover's really a pain.

It's one, two , three innings left
and I'm praying for rain!
