Ain't it peculiar, darlin',

How our love goes on and on.

Ain't it peculiar, honey,

We take the bad with the wrong

You know that time after time,

A misfortune smiled,

Ain't it peculiar, woman,

You know we'll laugh our way through.

When will this long night of a prison ever end?

When will this long night of a prison ever end?

You know I'm ready to say that [?]

Lord, you're the talk of the town.

The next minute, you're busted,

Just listenin' to that jailhouse sound.

You know that time after time,

A misfortune smiled.

Ain't it pecular, woman,

How we'll just laugh our way through:

When will this long night of a prison ever end?

When will this long night of a prison ever end?

You know, double-talk is poison,

But that's the rule of the game;

Instead of back-stabbing, they practice

All the little things that drive you insane.

You know that time after time,

A misfortune smiled.

You know, it's so peculiar

I can still laugh my way through it.

When will this long night of a prison ever end?

When will this long night of a prison ever end?

Ain't it peculiar (6 x's, fade out)
