    Married in white, you are chosen alright
    Married in yellow, you are ashamed of your fellow
    Married in green, you are fit to be seen
    Married in red, you wish yourself dead
    Married in brown, you will live out of town
    Married in black, you wish yourself back
    Married in blue your love will be true
    Married in grey you will soon be in clay
