Verso 1

Before you ask her
On a Friday night first date
It might be good for you and me
To get a few things straight
Before you ask her
And I hear that doorbell ring
Or she ain't gonna' answer
Until you answer me

Coro 1

Will you hold the door be polite
Pick up the tab and treat her right
Have her home by ten
And not a minute after
Will you take it slow
When it comes to love
Let a goodnight kiss be far enough
And treat her with respect
'Cause that's what's matters
Oh I guess you got some things
To ask yourself

Verso 2

Before you ask her
Let me tell you about my girl
She's a fourth of July fire work
And she'll light up your whole world
Before you ask her
You need to know what her heart's worth
And if she chooses you
Then that makes you
The luckiest on Earth

Coro 2

Will you build her up
Don't let her down
And never try to steal her crown
Believe in all the dreams
She's chasing after
Will you give her wings
And let her fly
'Cause if you do she'll touch the sky
Will you always let her know
That her voice matters
Oh I guess you got some things
To ask yourself

Refrain

Before you ask her
Before you ask her

Verso 3

Before you ask me
If you can walk her down the aisle
Yeah I knew this day was coming
I've seen the way you make her smile
Before you ask her
Before you get down on one knee
And make my girl a promise
I need you to promise me

Coro 3

Will you stay for better or for worse
Will you put her and Jesus first
And always be her happy ever after
Will you let that ring remind you
That even when the hard times find you
It's the promises we keep
That really matter
Son I guess you got some things
To ask yourself

Refrain

Before you ask her
Before you ask her

Refrain

Ha ooh
Before you ask her
