Single Women

Lyrics

Single bars and single women
 With a single thought in mind
 Just to make it 'till the morning
 Looking for what they can find
 For a man they won't remember
 For a night they can't forget
 Do you come to this place often?
 May I light your cigarette?
 ♪
 Drinkin' beer in Amarillo
 Passing time and swaping jokes
 Hoping for a new beginning
 But beginning to lose hope
 And you're waiting for that moment
 When a glance becomes a stare
 Mmm, what's that perfume that you're wearing?
 Haven't I met you somewhere?
 Find a matchbook in the morning
 With a name and number scrawled
 When you phone, a woman answers
 And you wish you'd never called
 Oh, they're friendly when they meet you
 But they're strangers when they go
 Ahh, do you mind if I come join you?
 Would you like to dance one more?
 ♪
 And it's gettin' near to closing
 And the seconds pass like years
 Lots of friends to share the laughter
 Not a one to share the tears
 Oh, and you wish they'd change that jukebox
 Cause you know every song it plays
 Can I drop you off at my place?
 Oh, what's the matter, are you gay?
 You gotta twenty in your pocket
 Got your toothbrush in your purse
 Life could get a whole lot better
 But it better not get worse
 Single bars and single women
 With a single thought in mind
 Just to make it 'till the morning
 Looking for what they can find.
