Lyrics
Chorus
You hit the nail on the head
When you said I’d be blue
You hit the nail on the head
I should have listened to you
Ho-oh! You told me I’d cry
For saying goodbye
I didn’t believe you that night
You little fortune teller
I’ll be darned if you didn’t guess right
You said I’d knock at your door
And I laughed in your face
But I ain’t laughing no more
You put me right in my place
Ho-oh! You told me to stay
You warned me some day
I’d wake up and wish I were dead
Yeah, that’s what you said
And you hit the nail on the head
