Hey wait, please wait
Don't rush off
You won't be late
Wait, yes, he'll wait
The engine's running
At the gate
Don't believe what you've heard
Faithful's not a bad word
Oh, won't you save these Bachelor
Kisses now, they're for your brow
Oh, won't you save these Bachelor
Kisses now, they're for your brow
Hand, hands like hooks
You'll get hurt
If you play with crooks
Your hand, that's all he took
The world opened up
For your looks
Don't believe what you've heard
Faithful's not a bad word
Oh, won't you save these Bachelor
Kisses now, they're for your brow
Oh, won't you save these Bachelor
Kisses now, they're for your brow
The arcade lights are hanging down
The rain surrenders to the town
The world of men don't mean a thing
When all they give you is a diamond ring
Don't believe what you've heard
Faithful's not a bad word
Oh, won't you save these Bachelor
Kisses now, they're for your brow
Oh, won't you save these Bachelor
Kisses now, they're for your brow
But don't be slave to Bachelor
Kisses now, they'll break their vow
But don't be slave to Bachelor
Kisses now, they'll break their vow
