All my friends are married
Every Tom and Dick and Harry
You must be strong
If you’re to go it alone
Here’s to the bachelors
And the bowery bums
And those who feel that they’re the ones
Who are better off without a wife
I can sleep until the crack of noon
Midnight howlin’ at the moon
Goin’ out when I wanna, 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 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<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I can sleep until the crack of noon
Midnight howlin’ at the moon
Goin’ out when I wanna, 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<\/p>\n\n\n\n
(spoken) You see, I’m kinda selfish about my privacy
As long as I can be with me
(spoken) We get along so well I can’t hardly believe it
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<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I can sleep until the crack of noon
Midnight howlin’ at the moon
Goin’ out when I wanna, 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
(spoken) Hey, I got this girl I know, man, and I just\u2026
She’s been married several times and\u2026
I don’t wanna end up like her.
I mean, she’s been married so many times
she’s got rice-marks all over her face.
Yeah, you know the kind\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I can sleep until the crack of noon
Midnight howlin’ at the moon
Goin’ out when I wanna, 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<\/p>\n\n\n\n
