A baby's born in the middle of the night
In the local delivery room
They grab his feet, smack him till he cries
He goes home the next afternoon
Before you know it, he's off to school
And then he graduates in May
Goes out and gets a Ph.D.
And then cures all sorts of things
Wins the Nobel Prize and saves a million different lives
The world's a better place for all he's done
It's funny when you think about the reason he's alive
Is all because two people fell in love
Right now at a picnic shelter
Down by Cane Creek
You'll find potato salad
Hot dogs and baked beans
The whole Wilson family's lined up
Fillin' their paper plates
And they've drove or flown in here
>From fifteen different states
Stanley Wilson says that sixty years ago he knew
That Ms. Emma Tucker was the one
The five generations get together every June
And all because two people fell in love
--Chorus
Yeah, there ain't nothin' not affected
When two hearts get connected
All that is, will be, or ever was
Every single choice we make
Every breath we get to take
Is all because two people fell in love
-Solo-> F Am G C F Am F
Well, I recall a young man who was
Drifting aimlessly
And a young waitress who seemed
Lonesome as can be
In a little cafe right off of fourteenth avenue
With a whole lotta help from up above
We met and things sure turned around for me and you
And all because two people fell in love
--Chorus#2
Baby, there ain't nothin' not affected
When two hearts get connected
All that is, will be, or ever was
I'm glad your dad could not resist
Your mama's charms and you exist
All because two people fell in love
You know to me it's all so clear
F n.c.
Every one of us is here
All because two people fell in love
A baby's born in the middle of the night
In the local delivery room
They grab his feet, smack him till he cries
He goes home the next afternoon
