    Story Behind the Song

    Lyrics
    They were married in the church
    in the village of their birth
    everybody was on hand
    to see the May Queen get her man

    there was sunshine through the clouds
    "Sunday Best" and tears and bells
    the day the village turned out to see
    the wedding of the May Queen

    down the gravel path they processed
    a gaggle of small children were running ahead
    a rag tag band waited by the church wall
    to march them down to the village hall

    and before the apple blossom had set
    the vicar had already placed the bet
    that the village would turn out to see
    the wedding of the May Queen

    a red sky rose in the west
    and a chill crept in to the air
    people spilled out onto the road
    from the pub down to the village hall

    for tomorrow they'll nurse their heads
    but smile when they hear it said
    that the village turned out to see
    the wedding of the May Queen
