My son is startin' to ask those questions that I don't want to answer He wants to know just where he came from and as I shuffle I answer I started to explain myself and I could feel my words shake you were a wonderful mistake Ooh-hoo-hoo you were a wonderful mistake
Well I tried to plan my life so careful sometimes things just happen and my fate did weave itself around me and destiny caught me napping and now I realise just what i have and what a difference that boy makes he's a wonderful mistake Ooh-hoo-hoo he's a wonderful mistake
I bet in truth, not to cross this line there's a whole lot more accidents than plans
So my son, don't be hard on your old man I just didn't want to lie to you and my prayers were answered without praying no one will love you like I do though it scared me when i heard the news without you my heart would break you were a wonderful mistake Ooh-hoo-hoo you were a wonderful mistake you were a wonderful mistake Ooh-hoo-hoo you were a wonderful mistake
