Dolly Parton – Single Women

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

Drinkng beer and amaretto passing time and swapping jokes

Hoping for a new beginning but the beginning to lose hope

And you’re waiting for that moment when a glance becomes a stare

Umm what’s that perfume you’re wearin’ haven’t I met you somewhere

Find a matchbox in the morning with a name and number scrawled

When you phone a woman answers and you wish you’d never called

They’re friendly when they met you but they’re strangers when they go

Do you mind if I come join ya would you like to dance one more

[ sax ]

And it’s gettin’ near to closing and the seconds pass like years

Lots of friends to share the lughter not a one to share the tears

And you wish they’d change that jukebox you know every song it plays

Can I drop you off at my place ah what’s the matter are you gay

You’ve got a 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
