It Happened Just That Way

Yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah

A-well-a yeah yeah yeah yeah, it happened just that way



Well-a l was born in a boomer's shack

'bout that far from the railroad track

Choo-choo rattled my window pane

Sheet-iron roof tells me every time it rained



Yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah

A-well-a yeah yeah yeah yeah, it happened just that way



I went to a one-room school

Walked to and from the school

I carried lunch in a paper sack

It was one mile over and two miles back



Yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah

A-well-a yeah yeah yeah yeah, it happened just that way



And now my brother worked hard in the grain

Poppa drove a choo-choo train

One sister was a righteous girl

But the other 'un' was a woman of the world



Chorus to fade
