ALL THE GOOD ONES ARE TAKEN
Words and Music by Ervin R. Maynard

==============================
I'm walking the streets
With you on my mind
I tell the friends that I meet
That I'm doing fine
I smile for effect
But they know I'm faking
Why is it
It seems
All the good ones are taken
I try to stay away
But then I think of your smile
So I call you on the phone
And I'm ok for awhile
But the thought of touching you
Has my hands shaking
Why is it
It seems
All the good ones are taken
Well I want to know
Why after we say goodbye
You have to go home to him
And I go home to cry
No I don't have a plan
For what the future might bring
If I could just hold your hand
And not see that wedding ring
I know it's nopt much
But my heart is breaking
Why is it
It seems
All the good ones are taken
