She got dressed for the wedding
in a service station restroom
They let him out of prison
long enough to be the groom

Percy Unsey was a six-foot
blue-eye caucasian male
They were married by the same judge
that sent his butt to jail

The sheriff was the best man
in case he tried to run
He kept a nine-millimeter pistol
underneath his cumberbund

The ring was bought with money
stolen from a convenience store
from a seven-eleven robbery
for which he got one to four

Low-class love affair
They ain't got a prayer
They're a sorry pair
Low-class but they don't care

She met him in a courtroom
on the day he was arraigned
At his trial he looked handsome
in his ball and chain

She was up on prostitution
dressed in trashy clothes
and after they convicted him
he stood up and proposed

She saw him on the side of the road
with a sling blade in his hand
He's the cute one in state issue
in the ditch with the farmer tan

She stopped the car
He jumped the guard
and hopped behind the wheel
and they took off on a honeymoon
in a stolen Bonneville

Low-class love affair
They ain't got a prayer
Look at what she wears
Nothing's under there

How in this world are they
ever gonna carry on relations
Can a county inmate really love
a woman accused of solicitation

They got busted by the police
just outside of town
The cops made them both spread 'em
and a trooper patted her down

They beat him up and hauled him off
He's back with the boys in blue
She did ninety days
and went on Phil Donahue

Low-class love affair
They ain't got a prayer
They're a sorry pair
Social nightmare

Low-class love affair
They ain't got a prayer
They're a sorry pair
Low-class but they don't care
