“When I Was Single, Marryin’s All I Craved” Karaoke (midi with lyrics).
Lyrics: Hedy West.
Tune: Hedy West.
When I was single, marryin’s all I craved.
Now, I am married, Lord. I’m troubled to my grave,
And I wish I was a single girl again.
Dishes to wash; the spring to go to.
I ain’t got no one to help me, Lord. I got it all to do,
And I wish I was a single girl again.
Two little children lyin’ in the bed.
Both of them so hungry, Lord, they can’t raise up their heads,
And I wish I was a single girl again.
I took in some washing, made a dollar or two.
My husband went and stole it, Lord. I don’t know what to do,
And I wish I was a single girl again.
When I was single, marryin’s all I craved.
Now, I am married, Lord. I’m troubled to my grave,
And I wish I was a single girl again.
