(Michael Peterson/Arlos Smith) Everybody's wavin' good-bye to Joe His wife called, last call... he's gotta go Kinda brings a tear, to every single guy I admire his dedication, he's a family man Thirteen years had a ring on his hand Kinda makes me wonder, if I should give it a try Well I would if I could, but I can't so I won't They're sayin' I do, I'm sayin' I don't I won't regret it, one single minute 'Cause love's great when you're not in it No curtains on the windows, just a couple sheets TV dinners, my life is complete Ain't no one more committed... I love the single life If I want to, I can put on my cleanest dirty shirt Stay out all night for better or worse Just look what I'd be missin', if I had a wife Well I would if I could, but I can't so I won't They're sayin' I do, I'm sayin' I don't I won't regret it, one single minute 'Cause love's great when you're not in it Well I would if I could, but I can't so I won't They're sayin' I do, I'm sayin' I don't I won't regret it, one single minute 'Cause love's great when you're not in it I would if I could, but I can't so I won't They're sayin' I do, I'm sayin' I don't I won't regret it, one single minute 'Cause love's great when you're not in it (C) 1997 Warner-Tamerlane Publishing Corp.
