Lyrics
Singles Bar
I'm as free as a bird in flight
Going to a singles bar tonight.
I'm going to a singles bar tonight.
Did you think I'd stay home in misery,
Just cause you decide to leave?
I'm going to a single's bar tonight.
I learned disco from the girl next store.
I got a brand new dress from the grocery story.
I'm going to walk myself right out the door.
I'm going to a singles bar tonight.
Should you decide to up and phone, you won't find no body home.
I'm going to a singles bar tonight.
I left the kids with my brother, Bill,
Going out with my friend, Lucille.
I'm going to a singles bar tonight.
I learned disco from the girl next store.
I got a brand new dress from the grocery story.
I'm going to walk myself right out the door.
I'm going to a singles bar tonight.
You opened up my cage door.
I aint staying home no more.
I'm going to a singles bar tonight.
I'm going to a singles bar tonight.
