George Jones

Accidentally On Purpose

In the papers I saw you this morning

You were lovely, dressed in your wedding gown

And it said you would marry a stranger to me

That had drifted into our old home town

Accident'ly, you met him one ev'ning

And you say it was love at first sight

Accident'ly on purpose you're marryin'

Accident'ly on purpose, for spite

For you say that you saw me out painting the town

That I was just a fool with the heart of a clown

Accident'ly, you were mistaken that night

Accident'ly on purpose, for spite

Yes, you say that you saw me out painting the town

That I was just a fool with the heart of a clown

Accident'ly, you were mistaken that night

Accident'ly on purpose, for spite
