(Tim Hauser/Laurel Masse/Alan Paul/Janis Siegel)
When I was single
the life I led was mine

Thought that when I married
I'd be happy al the time


Lord I wish I was
A single girl again
Lord I wish I was

A single girl again

When I was a single girl

The boys all courted me
I would move from man to man
Just like a honeybee

Single girls are free to roam
Wherever love is found
Now that I am married Lord

You know I can't get to town - no no

Lord I wish I was

A single girl again
Lord I wish I was
A single girl again


First he said he loved me
And now he treats me like a slave

The burden of this married life
I carry to my grave


Lord I wish I was
A single girl again
Lord I wish I was

A single girl again
