Title: A Church, A Courtroom And Then Goodbye

Written by eddie miller and w.s. stevenson
(as released by patsy cline july 20, 1955)

The first scene was the church, then the altar
Where we claimed each other, with tears of joy we cried
Our friends wished us luck there forever
As we walked from the church, side by side

The next scene was a crowded courtroom
And like strangers we sat side by side
Then i heard the judge make his decision
And no longer were we man and wife

I hate the sight of that courtroom
Where man-made laws push god's laws aside
Then the clerk wrote our story in the record
A church, a courtroom and then goodbye

We walked from that courtroom together
We shook hands and once again we cried
Then it was the end of our story
A church, a courtroom and then goodbye
