I was young and single
Glad that i was free
Had my whole life ahead
There was nothing stoppin me

Headed out to Vegas, me and all my friends
Just a bunch of clowns runnin round in a town of sin
Ten shots later and one double dare
Met a girl said I do in some chapel out there

That was the best mistake I ever made
The Lord works in mysterious ways
Chose a wrong path all my life
But for once I did something right
And just one look in her and I see
Someone smiling down on me
And I'm not too proud to say
That was the best mistake I ever made

Trying to start a family was the last thing we had planned
Till I came home from work
She had her head in her hands
I could see the worry
Through the teardrops in her eyes
She said, "How we gonna do this when we're barely gettin by?"

That all changed when the doctor said it's a girl

That was the best mistake I ever made
The Lord works in mysterious ways
Chose a wrong path all my life
But for once I did something right
And just one look in her and I see
Someone smiling down on me
And I'm not too proud to say
That was the best mistake I ever made

There's consequences to the decisions in our lives
Just cause we didn't mean to do it that don't mean that it ain't right

That was the best mistake I ever made
The Lord works in mysterious ways
Chose a wrong path all my life
But for once I did something right
And just one look in her and I see
Someone smiling down on me
And I'm not too proud to say
That was the best mistake I ever made
