A BABY'S BORN
IN THE MIDDLE
OF THE NIGHT
IN THE LOCAL
DELIVERY ROOM
THEY GRAB HIS FEET
SMACK HIM
'TIL HE CRIES
HE GOES HOME
THE NEXT AFTERNOON
AND 'FORE YOU KNOW IT
HE'S OFF TO SCHOOL
AND THEN HE
GRADUATES IN MAY
GOES OUT
AND GETS A P. H. D.
AND THEN CURES
ALL SORTS OF THINGS
WINS THE NOBEL PRIZE
AND SAVES
A MILLION
DIFFERENT LIVES
THE WORLD'S
A BETTER PLACE
FOR ALL HE'S DONE
IT'S FUNNY
WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT
THE REASON HE'S ALIVE
IT'S ALL BECAUSE
TWO PEOPLE
FELL IN LOVE
RIGHT NOW
AT A PICNIC SHELTER
DOWN BY CANEY CREEK
YOU'LL FIND
POTATO SALAD
HOT DOGS
AND BAKED BEANS
THE WHOLE
WILSON FAMILY'S
LINED UP
FILLIN' THEIR
PAPER PLATES
AND THEY'VE DROVE
OR FLOWN IN HERE
FROM FIFTEEN
DIFFERENT STATES
AND STANLEY WILSON
SAYS THAT
SIXTY YEARS AGO
HE KNEW
THAT MISS EMMA TUCKER
WAS THE ONE
NOW FIVE GENERATIONS
GET TOGETHER
EVERY JUNE
AND ALL BECAUSE
TWO PEOPLE
FELL IN LOVE
YEAH THERE AIN'T
NOTHIN' NOT AFFECTED
WHEN TWO HEARTS
GET CONNECTED
ALL THAT IS WILL BE
OR EVER WAS
HEY EVERY SINGLE
CHOICE WE MAKE
EVERY BREATH
WE GET TO TAKE
IS ALL BECAUSE
TWO PEOPLE
FELL IN LOVE
4 BAR
BREAK
WELL I RECALL
A YOUNG MAN
WHO WAS DRIFTIN'
AIMLESSLY
AND A YOUNG
WAITRESS
WHO SEEMED
LONESOME
AS COULD BE
BUT IN A LITTLE CAFE'
RIGHT OFF OF
FOURTEENTH AVENUE
WITH A WHOLE LOT
OF HELP
FROM UP ABOVE
WE MET
AND THINGS
SURE TURNED AROUND
FOR ME AND YOU
AND ALL BECAUSE
TWO PEOPLE
FELL IN LOVE
WELL BABY THERE AIN'T
NOTHIN' NOT AFFECTED
WHEN TWO HEARTS
GET CONNECTED
ALL THAT IS WILL BE
OR EVER WAS
I'M GLAD YOUR DAD
COULD NOT RESIST
YOUR MAMA'S CHARMS
AND YOU EXIST
ALL BECAUSE
TWO PEOPLE FELL IN LOVE
YOU KNOW TO ME
IT'S ALL SO CLEAR
EVERYONE OF US
IS HERE
ALL BECAUSE
TWO PEOPLE
FELL IN LOVE
A BABY'S BORN
IN THE MIDDLE
OF THE NIGHT
IN THE LOCAL
DELIVERY ROOM
THEY GRAB HIS FEET
SMACK HIM
'TIL HE CRIES
HE GOES HOME
THE NEXT AFTERNOON
