Knock Me A Kiss (11-22-43) |
A woman is the sweetest thing |
On that we all agree |
But when she gets the wedding band |
A mans no longer free |
That’s why I’m safe, sane and single |
I’m on my merry way |
Yes I’m safe, sane and single |
That’s how I’m gonna stay |
A wife and husband came upon |
The parting of their ways |
The judge gave her the bank account |
And gave him 90 days |
That’s why I’m safe, sane and single |
I’m on my merry way |
Yes I’m safe, sane and single |
That’s how I’m gonna stay |
A friend of mine got married |
To a gal named Nellie Gray |
She pawned his watch then sold his car |
And gave his clothes away |
That’s why I’m safe, sane and single |
I’m on my merry way |
Yes I’m safe, sane and single |
That’s how I’m gonna stay |
I met a gal in Birmingham |
And thereby hangs a tale |
She had a husband doing time |
Another out on bail |
That’s why I’m safe, sane and single |
I’m on my merry way |
Yes I’m safe, sane and single |
That’s how I’m gonna stay |
Ha, ha, ha, I got one |
I courted a gal for 15 years |
Her Pa said we should wed |
If my horse could only cook |
I’d marry him instead |
That’s why I’m safe, sane and single |
I’m on my merry way |
Yes I’m safe, sane and single |
That’s how I’m gonna stay |
Thank God I’m safe, Thank God I’m safe, |
Yes I’m safe, sane and single |
That how I’m gonna stay |
Thank God I’m safe, Thank God I’m safe, |
Yes I’m safe, sane and single |
That how I’m gonna stay! |
Thank God I’m safe, Thank God I’m safe, |
Yes I’m safe, sane and single |
That how I’m gonna stay! |
Now you got that? |
