When I was single I used to dress so fine
Now that I'm married I go ragged all the time
I wish I was a single girl again, oh lord
I wish I was a single girl again
Two little babies laying around in bed
Both of them so weary, oh, they can't raise up their head
I wish I was a single girl again, oh lord
I wish I was a single girl again
My husband's a drunkard, throws his bottles across the room
One day I'll set him straight with a bald-headed end of a broom
I wish I was a single girl again, oh lord
I wish I was a single girl again
When I was single I ate ice cream and pie
Now that I'm married it's cornbread or die
I wish I was a single girl again, oh lord
I wish I was a single girl again
My husband drives me crazy
He makes my face turn red
And I grab a frying pan and hit him square across the head
I wish I was a single girl again, oh lord
I wished I was a single girl again
