Lyrics
Bachelor Girl
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Sally's got a condo on Riverside Drive,
Sally's got a calico cat.
She cries when they play here comes the bride,
'Cos she's never had time for that.
She's been to seventeen weddings in the last three years,
Watchin' all her friends settle down.
Sally was thinkin' 'bout her career,
Every time Mr. Right came around.
An' she does okay 'til Saturday night,
When, alone on the couch, she's through.
Sally gets the feeling she just can't fight,
An' it's a long weekend for a bachelor girl.
Bachelor girl, doin' what she wants to,
All dressed up in her grandma's pearls.
She's nobody's fool, she's nobody's baby.
We all know Sally is a bachelor girl.
Sally went to college someplace back east.
An' Sally's got an MBa.
Sally's got a nephew, an' Sally's got a niece.
Everybody's havin' kids these days.
An' she does okay 'til Saturday night,
When, alone on the couch, she's through.
Sally gets the feeling she just can't fight,
An' it's a long weekend for a bachelor girl.
Bachelor girl, doin' what she wants to,
All dressed up in her grandma's pearls.
She's nobody's fool, she's nobody's baby.
We all know Sally is a bachelor girl.
We all know Sally is a bachelor girl.
Instrumental Break.
Sally likes to listen to the boats go by,
With her eye on the setting sun.
She sets the microwave on high,
Cookin' up a dinner for one.
'Cos she's a bachelor girl, doin' what she wants to,
All dressed up in her grandma's pearls.
She's nobody's fool, she's nobody's baby.
We all know Sally is a bachelor girl.
We all know Sally is a bachelor,
Oh, a bachelor girl.
