Ain't it peculiar, darlin'?
How our love goes on and on
Ain't it peculiar, honey?
We take the bad with the wrong

You know that time after time
A misfortune smiled
Ain't it peculiar, woman?
You know we'll laugh our way through

When will this long night of a prison ever end?
When will this long night of a prison ever end?

You know I'm ready to say that?
Lord, you're the talk of the town
The next minute, you're busted
Just listenin' to that jail-house sound

You know that time after time
A misfortune smiled
Ain't it peculiar, woman?
How we'll just laugh our way through

When will this long night of a prison ever end?
When will this long night of a prison ever end?

You know, double-talk is poison
But that's the rule of the game
Instead of backstabbing, they practice
All the little things that drive you insane

You know that time after time
A misfortune smiled
Know, it's so peculiar
I can still laugh my way through it

When will this long night of a prison ever end?
When will this long night of a prison ever end?

Ain't it peculiar? Ain't it peculiar?
Ain't it peculiar? Ain't it peculiar?
Ain't it peculiar? Ain't it peculiar?
