He ain't handsome, he ain't witty, he ain't cute

Lives in his mother's house, wears a brown suit

He works, gets paid twice a month

Tells his friends, 'Yeah, I had a girlfriend, once'

Doesn't do too much, he just kind of hangs around

Couldn't fall in love until it came and knocked him down

She's got sisters, they make her cry

Mom says, 'You get your looks from your father's side'

'You're a very pretty girl' her daddy swears

She's got a mole on her left cheek with three black hairs

Bought a beat up Ford with what she'd saved for a wedding gown

Couldn't fall in love until it came and knocked her down

They meet at a place, a place where people meet



'Life ain't all that bad' he says, and she says, 'I agree'

It's a fairy tale for a dragon and a witch

They're perfect for each other, she ain't pretty he ain't rich

They're a little bit surprised by what they've found

Couldn't fall in love until it came and knocked them down

A pretty girl with coal black hair

Takes her handsome beau to a family affair

He kisses mama's right cheek and he gives daddy's hand a shake

Thinks to himself, 'This must be some mistake'

He's just seen it come and go and come and go around

Couldn't fall in love until it came and knocked him down
