| When I was a single girl, dressed in clothes so fine
|
| Now I am a married girl, go ragged all the time
|
| Wish I was a single girl again
|
| Wish I was a single girl again
|
| When I was a single girl, had shoes of the very best kind
|
| Now I am a married girl, go barefoot all the time
|
| Wish I was a single girl again
|
| Wish I was a single girl again
|
| When I was a single girl, used to go to the store and buy
|
| Now I am a married girl, just rock that cradle and cry
|
| Wish I was a single girl again
|
| Wish I was a single girl again
|
| When a fella comes a' courtin' you, and sits you on his knee
|
| Keep your eye upon the sparrow that flits from tree to tree
|
| And you’ll never wish you were a single girl like me
|
| You’ll never wish you were a single girl like me
|
| Wish I was a single girl again |
