I Never Thought It Could Happen to Me

(album: The Sherry Lee Show - 2023)

(We have a Jimmy Dickens tune coming up next. It's one of my favorites, and I know by your cards and letters you really do enjoy it. So, we're gonna do "I Never Thought It Could Happen to Me".)

So many people are ruining their lives
Women leave husbands, and husbands leave wives
How miserable some folks can turn out to be
But I never thought it could happen to me, not me

When we were married I was your sweet wife
Your love was the most precious thing in my life
And though I know love boats get wrecked on life's sea
But I never thought it could happen to me, not me

I know I was smart but I acted the fool
Our little children are off in some school
They miss their daddy, and I miss him, too
Too bad what the Devil can make people do

So many people are ruining their lives
Women leave husbands, and husbands leave wives
How miserable some folks can turn out to be
But I never thought it could happen to me, not me

(I really do enjoy that song.)
