Ain't it funny how it all works out? Ain't it funny how every now and then the unfortunate kind Get lucky sometimes? Thirty-nine years You've been puttin' up with me Your folks said we'd never see our first anniversary Do you remember that first week When you burnt that pecan pie And I ate the whole damn thing? I couldn't stand to see you cry Ain't it funny how it all works out? Ain't it funny how it all works out? Ain't it funny how every now and then the unfortunate kind Get lucky sometimes? See country shows near Tomball Get tickets as low as $1,149 Then you got sick And things just weren't the same There were days I'd come to visit you didn't even know my name Then I watched you fade away While I was holdin' tight to you Until the nurses pulled me back and said "There's nothin' you can do" Ain't it funny how it all works out? Ain't it funny how it all works out? Ain't it funny how every now and then the unfortunate kind Get lucky sometimes? It's been two years to the day Since you left me here alone Most days I sit there in the kitchen waitin' for you to come home Yeah I'm still haunted by your ghost I can't sleep in our old bed I just lay there on the couch thinkin' 'bout the words you said Ain't it funny how it all works out? Ain't it funny how it all works out? Ain't it funny how every now and then the unfortunate kind Get lucky sometimes?
