The Carter Family - It'll Aggravate Your Soul lyrics

Come all of you people take warning from me Don't take no girl to Tennessee For if you get married and don't agree It'll aggravate your soul We left Maces early in the night Expect to get married before daylight So many things happened to hinder our flight It aggravated my soul Arrived at The Bristol at 11 o'clock The parson was there right on the spot We found that the license had been forgot It aggravated my soul We went for the license in an automobile Run so fast couldn't see the wheel No on can explain how bad I did feel It aggravated my soul We stayed all night at The Bristol Hotel Just to make folks think we were swell Next morning they put it in the Bristol Herald It aggravated my soul And when the new style books comin' around She begin's to get ready to go to town You know right then she's milliner shop bound It'll aggravate your soul She wants a new coat and a hobble skirt And you can't get in for the youngun's and dirt And when she gets out, oh how she will flirt It'll aggravate your soul And when the person gather round your head You'll think of what your dear old mother said With a pain in you back and heart and head It'll aggravate your soul Now young men take warning from me Don't take no girl to Tennessee For if you get married and don't agree It'll aggravate your soul
