Josh Abbott Band Surprise Surprise Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Austin's hung over from a late night bender
Playin' Tom Petty through a dusty old Fender
Neighbors complaining that we're playing too loud
We're too proud to turn it down
Played a couple gigs, booked a few dozen more
Wrote a song about love, now they're waiting at the door
Next thing you know we're all over the radio

[Chorus]
Surprise surprise, never saw it coming
At the same time wasn't looking for something
Big time, but I just can't see my life
Without music in it it's like where you been
My whole life I needed you in it
Done a lot of things wrong but at least something turned out right
Surprise surprise

[Verse 2]
Broke a few hearts, got mine broke too
Happy being single and then I met you
Was instant chemistry the way it oughta be
Yeah, sunsets, you and me
Out all night tearing up the town
Falling in love and hanging around
Next thing you know we're talking about settling down

[Chorus]
Surprise surprise, never saw it coming
At the same time I wasn't looking for something
Big time, but I just can't see my life
Without you in it it's like where you been
My whole life I needed you in it
Done a lot of things wrong but at least something turned out right
Surprise surprise

[Bridge]
And I didn't know what to say
When she said a little one's on the way
Say what?

[Chorus]
Surprise surprise, never saw it coming
At the same time I wasn't looking for something
Big time, but I just can't see my life
Without you in it it's like where you been
My whole life I needed you in it
Done a lot of things wrong but at least something turned out right
I done a lot of things wrong thank God something turned out right
Surprise surprise
Oh surprise surprise
