A married man, a married man
How wonderful to be a married man
For now i know life's purpose

And it's plan since time began

A lonely man, i took a wife

And added love and laughter to my life
And realized there's no one richer than
A married man


With two to share each happiness
And two to bear each wound

And, oh, the woe seems so much less
And how the pleasures grow


The bachelor, the bachelor
I've lived his life
And i've lived with her

Well, led him lead his so-called
Merry life as best he can


But as for me, i'd rather be
A happy man, contented man
A married man


Yes, as for me, i'd rather be
A happy man, contented man

A married man
