Verse 1
She fell in love on a Saturday night, her hair is grey but the fire’s burnin’ bright
He stood on stage with a guitar in his hand
They both got married when they were young, their spouses died now they find theirselves alone
Love’s hard but they both want one more chance

Bridge
He said I’m just a country boy, I’ll never be a superstar
A grandaddy in an antique rocking chair
She said it really doesn’t matter to me, a Grandmama, I’m not wrinkle-free
The Lord loves the antiques and He cares

Chorus
And she said I’ll be your antique doll, your antique doll
Won't you sit down there in that antique chair, and enjoy it all
I'll be your antique doll, your antique doll
Well, they say we're old and the kids are grown and we shouldn't try at all
But, if you let me, I'll be your antique doll

Verse 2
They did that dance for two whole years
They met the families and they get along, I hear
Now it's time to get married on the run
They say their clocks are running down
Well, I don't know because they got Viagra now
I think it's good that they’re finally having fun

[Bridge]

Chorus 2
And she said I’ll be your antique doll, your antique doll
Won't you sit down there in that antique chair, and enjoy it all
I'll be your antique doll, your antique doll
Won't you sit down there in that rockin’ chair and enjoy it all
I’ll be your antique doll, your antique doll
Well, they say we're old and the kids are grown and we shouldn't try at all
But, if you love me, I'll be your antique doll
I'll be your antique doll
I'll be your antique doll
I'll be your antique doll
