It Never Woulda Worked Out Anyway

Oh, lighten up, where's your sense of humor They're just tiny little rumors That I started 'cause I'm lookin' out for you Oh, settle down, I'm just a little jealous And I'm sure those other fellas Never once believed the lies I told were true Like the time I told that cowboy That you used to be a man And the doctor you were datin' That you hide your wedding band Even if I am responsible for scaring them away They'd really ought to thank me I was doin' you a favour 'Cause it never woulda worked out anyway Oh, can't you see, the reason that I'm doin' All the crazy things I'm doin' Is, because I really care about you girl And I'll admit I go a little farther Than I know I probably oughta But it's all because I need you in my world Like the time I told that lawyer That you spent a year in jail And the salesman you were seein' You hang out in cheap motels Even if I am responsible for scaring them away You'd really ought to thank me I was doin' you a favor 'Cause it never woulda worked out anyway I can't stand the thought of you With anybody else I know I've gone overboard But I can't help myself Like the time I told that dentist You had seven little kids And you doubled as a dancer at the strip club on the ridge Even if I am responsible for scaring them away You really ought to thank me I was doin' you a favour 'Cause it never woulda worked out anyway It's all because I love you and I can't stop thinking of you And it never woulda worked out anyway
