Cliff Richard - You Never Can Tell

Tekst piosenki:


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
