歌曲歌詞
All my friends are married
Every tom and dick and harry
You must be strong
To go it alone
Heres to the bachelors
And the bowery bums
And those who feel that they're the ones
Who are better off without a wife
I like to sleep until the crack of noon
Midnight howlin' at the moon
Goin out when I wanto comin' home when I please
I don't have to ask permission
If I want to go out fishing
And I never have to ask for the keys
I know I never been no valentino
Had a girl who lived in reno
Left me for a trumpet player
Didn't get me down
He was wanted for assault
Though he said it weren't his fault
Well the coppers rode him right
Out of town
I like to sleep until the crack of noon
Midnight howlin' at the moon
Goin' out when I wanto comin' home when I please
I don't have to ask permission
If I want to go out fishing
And I never have to ask for the keys
I know
Selfish about my privacy most time
As long as I can be with me
We get along so well I can't believe
I love to chew the fat with folks
And listen to all your dirty jokes
I'm so thankful for these friends
I do receive
I like to sleep until the crack of noon
Midnight howlin' at the moon
Goin' out when I wanto comin' home when I please
I don't have to ask permission
If I want to go out fishing
And I never have to ask for the keys
I like to sleep until the crack of noon
Midnight howlin' at the moon
Goin' out when I wanto comin' home when I please
I don't have to ask permission
If I want to go out fishing
And I never have to ask for the keys
