Ain’t Goin’ Marry (Ain’t Goin’ Settle Down)

[Verse]
Now I ain't gonna marry, I ain't going to settle down
Because the man I loved is Alabama bound
And he broke my heart, just for his own sweet sake
So now he wants it back again, but it's too late
'Cause he promised to be faithful until the end
When I caught him makin' love to my best friend
Now you know that kind of lovin' won't never do, won't never do

[Chorus]
Friends of mine, take my advice
Been stung once? Don't get stung twice
Married life is mighty sweet
But a single-life person is so hard to beat
Easy to say that you are man and wife
But it's hard to get a pal to stick through lifе
Since that right one ain't easy found
I ain't gonna marry or sеttle down

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Now friends of mine, take my advice
Been stung once? Don't get stung twice
Married life is mighty sweet
But a single-life person is so hard to beat
Easy to say that you are man and wife
But it's hard to get a pal to stick through life
Since that right one ain't easy found
I ain't gonna marry or settle down
Still sayin' I ain't gonna marry or settle down
