George Jones - The Ceremony Lyrics






Dearly beloved, we are gathered together,
In the presence of God, and these witnesses,
To join this man and this woman in the bonds,
Of holy matrimony

Do you Tammy, take this man, George
To be your lawfully wedded husband,
To love and to cherish until death do you part?

I'll take this man and by him I'll stand
I promise that we'll never part
To him, I'll be true
There'll be no one new
From now, till death do us part

And do you, George, take this woman, Tammy
To be your lawfully wedded wife,
To love and to cherish, until death do you part?

Yes I'll take this woman
She'll be mine forever
And I'll love her, with all of my heart

To have and to hold
My love won't grow cold
I promise, till death do us part

We'll take each other
From this day forward
Together, in sickness or health

United with love
We'll face life together
If we're poor or if we have wealth

For better or worst
You'll always come first
And no one can keep us apart

Yes, we take each other
Forsaking all others
Together, till death do us part

I now pronounce you, man and wife.

    " Did He Steal A Quick Kiss?Love Them."🅰🅰🅰

  10. D.... D....

    Wonderful fusion and harmony of voices ...unfortunately obvious split between souls ...rest in peace

  11. C.... S....

    I wish I was born during these times. I absolutely love this music. Seen many shows over the years including George Jones eight times. They just don't have the sound these old albums used to have. Nor do they have the musicians. I love the Countrypolitan/Nashville sound. Nothing beats it in my humble opinion.

  12. J.... B....

    Such a beautiful song, but there is NO love or affection showing...., all very cold and distant.

  13. V.... G....

    There are many people in this world who cannot handle alcohol. George was one of these people. The liquor caused their divorce and it caused mine, too. It brings out the demons in people. Waylon Jennings told a story about George being so drunk that he had to tie him up with a rope to get control of him. It's so sad....because I think that George and Tammy truly loved and admired each other. In my opinion, they were one of the best country duos EVER! RIP...George and Tammy

  14. L.... A....

    OH I LOVE THIS VIDEO SO MUCH♥️♥️GEORGE&TAMMY🎤🎸🌹

  39. B.... C....

    I REALLY THIINKTHEY MENT THIS I LIKE NANCY THOUGH I KNOW HOWS SHE FEELS IM A SECOND WIFE ITS WAS ROUGH BUT IVE HELD ON FOR 44 YEARS PRETTY GOOD RECORD LOVE GEORGE GONES AND TAMMY

  40. C.... L....

    I was reading all of the comments regarding the pain both Tammy & George, seem to show in the video... yes, it is true they were living separate lives there were too not so good things going on in the marriage. George of course with his drinking took it toll on the marriage and with his temper Tammy, just couldn't deal with it anymore. They were great together and great apart. If only they could have made it last then she might not have ended up with Richie, and her daughters would have been kept from what was rightfully theirs.

    C.... L....

    +Cathy Lewis I so agree with you

    C.... L....

    The Ceremony - Terry If Only

    C.... L....

    Cathy Lewis they both look miserable here.
    I feel like you. Wished she had never married that George Richey. It's awful what he did to her and her children. Wished her and Jones could have made it.
    I went to church with his Aunt and she told me he was always a sweet boy. I know a lot of people who lived in same area he lived in and I heard the good about George Jones. I lived near Beaumont, Texas at one time and it's not far from where he was born.
    He's had a lot of good in him. Wished Tammy could have made it with him but I know being married to an alcoholic myself for 30 yrs before I left him, it's a life of hell about 75 percent of the time.

    C.... L....

    Actually George was poisoned by Tammy to get him off the drugs, he ended up shooting the house and the they left with George crazy in a straight jacket to the mental hospital ward

    C.... L....

    I totally agree. George Richie gives me the CREEPS...he's a snake in the grass. That's why Tammy was dead at 55 y/o. So sad.

  41. s.... j....

    I think she was a pure beauty...but you could see plainly that there was no connection between the two. She looked at him and he plainly avoided her eye's.  All in all, a wonderful song done beautifully.

    s.... j....

    Sorry, you don't know what you're talking about ...they both loved each other very much ...they were probably fighting but there was a definite connection...I know because I was around them !

    s.... j....

    I clearly saw the love in her eyes.

  42. m.... r....

    On how lovely if only in reality two beautiful hearts x

  43. D.... M....

    Beautiful woman

  44. m.... p....

    They sound great but but no connection at all. Not exactly Gram & Emmy Lou

  45. D.... C....

    Haven't heard this song in years my mum and dad used to play it all the time when i was young lad

  46. A.... O....

    Tammy is Beautiful to me and always was one of my Favorite singers,I love Jeorge music and together they were Great


  47. L.... B....

    This song is one of my favorites, I still have the 45 rpm record.

  48. G.... E....

    You are a lot luckier than me. I was only allowed to use consonants at my wedding. They told me I could save money by doing that way. What is all this talk about polesmokers? Tammy was absolutely beautiful and I only recently discovered their duets(With George). A couple of them like "One" are amazing.

  49. T.... E....

    Classic! What a beautiful song...

  50. L.... d....

    it brings so many memories when i saw George &Tammy in a show in London ontario in the sixties,i had won (why do you wish to see george & tammy )on the radio and i won my entry i will remember till i die.
    they sang so good together.now they are back together for Eternety

  51. G.... G....

    She had a golden country voice best ever. Screw you pole smokers who wanna knock her looks.

  52. G.... G....

    Great tune!

  53. t.... ....

    I used these wedding vowels at my wedding 14 years ago

  54. R.... ....

    true true this video is amazing Hey use this to listen in mp3: bit.ly/17Cw9k2?=wvnmi

  55. b.... ....

    Together again, RIP Possum

  56. T.... ....

    So sad. No eye contact. They were hurting

  57. c.... ....

    if only it were true for them, and not just a song.

  58. s.... ....

    No two voices ever sounded
    any sweeter. I know there was great love here.

  59. A.... W....

    It looks like it kinda scared her when he kissed her... Like she wasn't expecting it.

    A.... W....

    You are exactly right, she was not expecting it!

  60. v.... ....

    It looks like they made this appearance during troubled times. The body language is so cold and different from their other performances of this great song.

  61. P.... ....

    Ouragan Tammy
