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 |
|
[ fiddle - steel ] |
|
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 comp'ny with the apple of my eye |
|
But keep that marrying out of your head I'll be a bachelor till I die |
