Single Girl

When I was single marriage I did crave
Now I am married, I am troubled to grave
Lord, I wish I was a single girl again
Lord, I wish I was a single girl again

The dishes to wash, the spring to go to
Got nobody to help me, I've got it all to do
Lord, I wish I was a single girl again
Lord, I wish I was a single girl again

I tuck in some washing, I made a dollar or two
My husband went and stole it, I don't know what to
Lord, I wish I was a single girl again
Lord, I wish I was a single girl again

Two little children, layin' in the bed
Both of them so hungry they can't raise up their head
Lord, I wish I was a single girl again
Lord, I wish I was a single girl again
