SHOULDA KNOWN SHE WOULD

Got this stomach ache
Damn, two pints of ice cream!
Trying to smother hell's high water
A typed video making history
I shoulda known, shoulda known

Trains passing by my window
Wonder if you're all aboard
You should be calling about now
I'm not about to fall back to sleep
Shoulda known, I shoulda known

I use to be right-handed
Now I'm good with my left
You could change me in a flash
Now it takes a moment or two

Calls at three in the morning
No big deal, this was normal to me
Packed enough to last over a month
Waiting for you to say, girl marry me

I shoulda known
Shoulda known
Shoulda known she would
Show up sooner or later

Too pretty to hide for long
I shoulda known
Shoulda known she would
Show up sooner or later

Felt the color blue trun black
Eating for the heck of it
Telling thirst not to panic
Playing by ear, notes from my past
I shoulda known, shoulda known

Sheeps counting themselves for me
Around six hundred seems near right
You should be knocking about now
Boy I'm not about to just lay here
Shoulda known, I shoulda known

Too pretty to hide for long
I shoulda known
Shoulda known she would
Show up sooner or later

I shoulda known
Shoulda known
Shoulda known she would
Show up sooner or later
