Tammy Wynette (May 5, 1942 – April 6, 1998) was an American country singer and songwriter. She was known as the "First Lady of Country Music" and one of her best-known songs was "Stand by Your Man," which was one of the biggest selling hit singles by a woman in the history of the music genre. Tammy Wynette was born Virginia Wynette Pugh near Tremont, Mississippi, the only child of William Hollis Pugh (died February 13, 1943) and Mildred Faye Russell (1922–1991). She was always called Wynette (pronounced Win-net), or Nettie, instead of Virginia. Her father was a farmer and local musician.

(man speaks):
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?
(t.w.) sings:
Ill take this man and by him Ill stand
I promise that well never part
To him, Ill be true
Therell be no one new
>from now, till death do us part
(man speaks)
And do you, george, take this woman, tammy
To be your lawfully wedded wife,
To love and to cherish, until death do you part?
(g.j.)
Yes Ill take this woman
Shell be mine forever
And Ill love her, with all of my heart
To have and to hold
My love wont grow cold
I promise, till death do us part
(both sing)
Well take each other
>from this day forward
Together, in sickness or health
United with love
Well face life together
If were poor or if we have wealth
For better or worst
Youll always come first
And no one can keep us apart
Yes, we take each other
Forsaking all others
Together, till death do us part
(man speaks)
I now pronounce you, man and wife.
