[Verse 1]
Did you hear the one
About the old man and the son
Who had a horse
Who ran away?
All the neighbors came and said
"We're sorry 'bout the stallion
He must have cost a fortune
What a shame"
But the old man, he knew better
Any moment anything can change forever, yes
[Chorus]
All's well that ends well
But all's well even if it doesn't
End well
All's well that ends well
But all's well, even if it doesn't
End well
[Verse 2]
One day, out of nowhere
After months had passed
The horse came back
And this time had a lady with him
She gave birth to baby horses
All the neighbors said "congratulations
What a fortune, God is great"
But the old man, he knew better
Any moment anything can change forever, yes
[Chorus]
All's well that ends well
But all's well even if it doesn't
End well
All's well that ends well
But all's well even if it doesn't
End well
[Bridge]
And the boy rode all the horses
Till one day he got kicked off and landed
On his back and broke it
All the neighbors sunk their heads and said
"How terrible, the poor young lad
He'll never ride a horse again"
[Verse 3]
It's hard to say just how the story ends
It's still unfolding, but we know the son was injured bad
Then a war broke out across the land
And all the men were drafted but the boy
Who had the broken back
And as he lay there in bed, in the hospital
All the young men were killed in the battle
You see, the old man, he knew better
Any moment anything can change forever, yes
[Chorus]
All's well that ends well
But all's well even if it doesn't
End well
All's well that ends well
But all's well even if it doesn't
End well
