[Nasri Atweh]
 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,
 Cause 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,
 Cause I need to know,
 You say I'll never get your blessing 
 till 
 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 alter,
 "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,
 Cause I need to know,
 You say I'll never get your blessing 
 till 
 the day I die,"
 "Tough luck my friend cause 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,
 Cause I need to know,

 till 
 the day I die,"
 "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,

 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?
 Why you gotta be so rude?"
