On That Note: Accidents Will Happen

It happens every day
No matter what you say
You'll find it happens all the time
Love will never do what you want it to

 
"Like Nothing Ever Happened" by Sylvia. This was the follow-up to her massive 1982 crossover hit "Nobody". It peaked at #2 on the Billboard Country Singles chart, but made it to #1 on the Cashbox Country Singles chart. Why THIS song wasn't also a crossover hit, I'll never understand.

No, I wouldn't put you on because it really did
It happened just this way
The day my mama socked it to the Harper Valley PTA





Bobby Gentry Ode to Billy Joe

Mama said to me, Child, what's happened to your appetite?
I've been cookin' all mornin' and you haven't touched a single bite
That nice young preacher, Brother Taylor, dropped by today
Said he'd be pleased to have dinner on Sunday, oh, by the way
He said he saw a girl that looked a lot like you up on Choctaw Ridge
And she and Billie Joe was throwing somethin' off the Tallahatchie Bridge

But somehow I can't believe
That anything should happen
I know where I belong
And nothing's going to happen, yeah

 
Woah-oh-oh, anything you want
We can make it happen
Stand up and turn around
Never let them shoot us down
