The single girl all alone in a great big townThe single girl gets so tired of love lettin' her downThe life's unreal and the people are homelyAnd the nights can get so lonelyThe single girl needs a sweet lovin' man to lean on
I'm a single girl wonderin' if love could be passin' me byI'm a single girl and I know all about men and their liesNobody loves me 'cause nobody knows meNobody takes the time to go slowlyThe single girl needs a sweet lovin' man to lean on
I gotta make my own wayThere's rent I gotta payI need a night-time loveTo get me through the day
I'm a single girl all alone in a great big townI'm a single girl and I get so tired of love lettin' me downBut there's a man I've yet to knowWaiting somewhere I've yet to go
Someday I'll have a sweet loving man to lean onThe single girl needs a sweet lovin' man to lean onThe single girl needs a sweet lovin' man to lean on
