|
I'll take you to the picture show |
|
And babe, I'll hold your hand |
|
I'll sit up in your parlor |
|
Let you cool me with your fan |
|
I'll listen to your troubles |
|
And pet you when you cry |
|
But get that marrying out of your head |
|
I'll be a bachelor till I die |
|
I done my honky tonkin' round |
|
And had a lot of fun |
|
But somehow I can't understand |
|
How one and one makes one |
|
I like to cuddle near you |
|
And listen to you lie |
|
But get that marrying out of your head |
|
I'll be a bachelor till I die |
|
Now if you want a help mate |
|
You're just wasting lots of time |
|
'Cause I'm afraid of church bells |
|
How they scare me when they chime |
|
I've seen those married people |
|
Just up and say goodbye |
|
So keep that marrying out of your head |
|
I'll be a bachelor till I die |
|
This freedom's mighty precious |
|
In this land of liberty |
|
I've seen what matrimony's done |
|
To better men than me |
|
I don't mind keeping company |
|
With the apple of my eye |
|
But keep that marrying out of your head |
|
I'll be a bachelor till I die |
