I’m a Bachelor

[Intro: The Temptations & Dennis Edwards]
I'm a bachelor, it's not by choice
I'm a bachelor, I've got to speak my voice
Listen here

[Verse 1: Dennis Edwards]
I've been a lot of places in my lifetime
I've had a lot of women that I thought was mine - many times
There's not many things in life that I won't do - naw
But I'm still a lonely man, and I've got to tell you

[Chorus: The Temptations & Dennis Edwards]
That I'm a bachelor, it's not by choice
I'm a bachelor, I've got to speak my voice
Well...

[Verse 2: Dennis Edwards]
I really want a girl I can bring my money to - yes I do
And do all the things that the sweet thing wants me to - yeah
But I'm not rushing, I'm taking it one step at a time
'Cause when I find that girl, she'll know that she's mine
Until I do...

[Chorus: The Temptations & Dennis Edwards]
I'm a bachelor, it's not by choice - naw
I'm a bachelor - I've got to speak my voice
(I want bachelors all over the world to say it with me)
I'm a bachelor (I'm a bachelor), it's not by choice - Say it again
I'm a bachelor (I'm a bachelor) - I've got to speak my voice - yeah

[Bridge: Dennis Edwards]
Don't want nobody to feel sorry for me - naw
I ain't askin' for no charity
Ain't got but one goal, just one goal in life
I wanna be happy, and find myself a wife
Until I do...

[Chorus: The Temptations & Dennis Edwards]
I'm a bachelor (I'm a bachelor), it's not by choice - naw
(I'm) I'm a bachelor (I'm a bachelor) - I've got to speak my voice

[Bridge: The Temptations & (Dennis Edwards), Melvin Franklin]
(Sometimes it makes me wanna...)
Woo eww eww, (Well) dih dih dih dihhh
Woo eww eww, (I can't help myself)
Woo eww eww, dih dih dih dihhh
Woo eww eww
I'm a bachelor

[Break]

[Outro: The Temptations]
All of you married men
I envy you
Yes I do, yes I do
I wish I was married too - yes I do
All of you married men
I envy you
Yes I do, yes I do
I wish I was married too - yes I do
Hey
Woo eww eww, dih dih dih dihhh
Woo eww eww, dih dih dih dihhh
