You Never Can Tell |
| I was talking to my milkman about the world the other day |
| When he told me the strangest thing that happened down the way |
| A customer, the quietest man you’d ever wish to meet |
| Suddenly dragged out his wife and beat her in the street |
| Well, well, well |
| It only goes to show |
| You never can tell |
| Years ago I knew a man, Big Jimmy was his name |
| He used to work at mining coal and fighting was his game |
| He bought a little puppy dog, that caught a chill and died |
| And do you know, that great big man, just broke right down and cried |
| Well, well, well |
| It only goes to show |
| You never can tell |
| The milkman and I both agreed, it’s a funny old world indeed |
| Read a lot in the papers to make you think |
| Take a drink in a while |
| Got to smile sometimes |
| A while ago they built a ship, the finest of its day |
| With every modern aid to guide it safely on its way |
| Went on its maiden voyage, it’s unsinkable, they said |
| But four days from Southampton it was on the ocean bed |
| Well, well, well |
| It only goes to show |
| You never can tell |
| Well, well, well |
| It only goes to show |
| You never can tell |
