Baby, I'm glad that things worked out so well

Baby, I'm glad that things worked out so well

Well today I got your letter

And you say you ain't been crying

But I could see the misery

As I read between the lines

The tear stains on your letter

Tell me things ain't got no better

But I'll just make you think I think

That everything is fine, and I'll say

Baby, I'm glad that things worked out so well

Though it ain't the truth, and I can tell, I'll say

Baby, I'm glad that things worked out so well

Though it ain't the truth, and I can tell

Sometimes the grass looks greener

On the other side

And he had fancy clothes

And flashy cars in which to ride

But now he's left you stranded

And you don't understand it

You tell me everything's alright

'cause you've got too much pride, and I'll say

Baby, I'm glad that things worked out so well

Though it ain't the truth, and I can tell, I'll say

Baby, I'm glad that things worked out so well

Though it ain't the truth, and I can tell, baby

I told you what was happening

And I begged you not to go

But you said I was jealous

That I just didn't know

I knew that he would hurt you

And pretty soon desert you

But I don't want to be the one to say

"I told you so", and I'll say

Baby, I'm glad that things worked out so well

Though it ain't the truth, and I can tell, I'll say

Baby, I'm glad that things worked out so well

Though it ain't the truth, and I can tell, baby
