I can hear Vince Gill do a killer version of this. Vince, call me.

lyrics

Just when I thought that all was well she walked into the room
She said: “Hey boy let’s have a little talk”, I said: “Now what did I do?”
She just laughed saying “Don’t be silly, it’s nothing that you’ve done…
“In fact it’s what you didn’t do that’s been coming on strong”

(She said)
“You and I have been together long enough to see
That all this time I’ve been about as patient as a girl can be
But the time has come for me to say that I just can’t wait no more
There’s something that I’m gonna get from you or I’m walking out that door”

(She said):
(I want a) C-O-M-M-I-T-M-E-N-T
I want a ring here on my finger baby saying you belong to me
I want a date that I can tell my friends and all my family
I want a C-O-M-M-I-T-M-E-N-T

I swallowed hard and stuttered badly and lost a pint of sweat
I tried to change the subject but she said “boy, we’re not through yet”
And when I said “Hon’ - if it ain’t broken why the need for glue?”
That’s when I learned what a laser beam inside a woman’s eyes can do

(She said):
(I want a) C-O-M-M-I-T-M-E-N-T
I want a ring here on my finger baby with a lifetime guarantee
I want a date that I can tell my friends and all my family
I want a C-O-M-M-I-T-M-E-N-T

Now call me dumb or call me stupid, but I thought all was well
But now I see she won’t let up, ‘till she hears wedding bells

So listen all you brothers to what I have to say
You can’t run from this commitment thing, when it comes your way
Take it from an expert if you think that you’re immune
You’re all invited to this former playboy’s wedding day in June!

(She got her) C-O-M-M-I-T-M-E-N-T
She’s got a ring that’s on her finger now for all the world to see
She’s got a date that she can tell her friends and all her family
She got her C-O-M-M-I-T-M-E-N-T

(she said:)
(She got her) C-O-M-M-I-T-M-E-N-T
She got me down on my knee proposing, nervous as can be
She’s got a date that she can tell her friends and all her family
(She got her) C-O-M-M-I-T-M-E-N-T
