Detailed Analysis
These lyrics describe a couple eagerly wanting to get married, with an emphasis on commitment and finding a church to wed immediately. The opening line about 'kissin' me is gettin' hot and heavy' and 'can't wait much longer' could carry a mild romantic urgency, but the entire thrust of the song is toward marriage and legal commitment rather than casual sexual encounter. There is no explicit language, no profanity, no drug or alcohol references, no violence, and no overt sexual content. The 'hot and heavy' phrase is the only mildly suggestive element, but it is framed entirely within the context of wanting to formalize the relationship through marriage. The values conveyed — commitment, marriage, and enthusiasm for a lifelong partnership — are wholesome and family-friendly. This song is appropriate for most ages, though younger children may not fully relate to the romantic themes.

Lyrics
Lately it takes both of us to drive this old chevy The way that you keep kissin' me is gettin' hot and heavy I'll drive a million miles just to walk down the aisle beside you This feelin' between us is makin' it obvious what we gotta do Let's find a church Any one will work Be it Baptist Methodist Lutheran Episcopalian How about a country chapel a city tabernacle As long as we can say I do I'm gonna marry you And be the luckiest man on this earth Well I can't wait much longer lets find a church It may be late but we'll try to wake up Some ole preacher And if that don't work we'll settle For a deacon or a Sunday school teacher We're in a hurry so baby don't worry bout no dress It don't matter if my jeans are tattered Or if your hair's a mess Let's find a church Any one will work Be it Baptist Methodist Lutheran Presbyterian How bout a country chapel a city tabernacle As long as we can say I do I'm gonna marry you And be the luckiest man on this earth Well I can't wait much longer let's find a church Let's find a church Any one will work Be it Baptist Methodist Lutheran Pentacostal How bout a country chapel a city tabernacle As long as we can say I'm gonna marry you And be the luckiest man on this earth I can't wait much longer let's find a church This feelin's gettin' stronger let's find a church Oh I do
