Justin Tubb - It Happened Just That Way lyrics

rate me

(Roger Miller)

Well, I was born in the boomer's shack

Bout that far from the railroad track

Choo-choo ratled my window pane

And the sheet iron roof told me evertime it rained.

Yea, yea, yea, yea

Yea, yea, yea, yea

Yea, yea, yea, yea

It happened just that way.

--- Instrumental ---

Well, I went to a one room school

I walked to and from this school

I carried my lunch in a paper sack

It was one mile over two miles back.

Yea, yea, yea, yea

Yea, yea, yea, yea

Yea, yea, yea, yea

It happened just that way.

--- Instrumental ---

And my brother worked hard in the grain

My papa drove a choo-choo train

One sister was a righteous girl

But the other was a woman of the world.

Yea, yea, yea, yea

Yea, yea, yea, yea

Yea, yea, yea, yea

It happened just that way.

Yea, yea, yea, yea

Yea, yea, yea, yea

Yea, yea, yea, yea

It happened just that way.

Yea, yea, yea, yea

Yea, yea, yea, yea

Yea, yea, yea, yea

It happened just that way...
