Whoa oh,I ain't gonna let you keep a thing,whoa oh
Asserting the intention not to let the person keep anything.
Where were you when I said I do?
Questioning the person's presence during the marriage vows.
Everybody laughed at my in-laws too
Highlighting mockery and laughter from others, particularly in-laws.
Where were you when I turned around?

Whoa oh,give me back my ring,whoa oh

Where were you when I searched the town?

Describing an extensive search that affected the entire neighborhood.
Where were you little girl I say?
Questioning the whereabouts of the person.
