Everyone's talking about Being tied down And they're so unhappy They say this married life Is just not for me They say they'd give anything To be living wild and free Well I am Oh yes I am And I don't wanna be
They say their husbands don't mow the lawn Until he's asked And he doesn't ever offer anymore To take out the trash They say they'd rather be alone Oh but if they were they'd see 'Cause I am Oh yes I am And I don't wanna be
[Chorus:] They say the grass is always greener On the other side But if I had someone to love Then I'd be satisfied I would never take for granted Something so hard to find Someone in my life
So if you've got a good love tonight Please don't let him go Unless you really are prepared To live life on your own 'Cause it hurts to be in bed tonight Holding onto nothing but a dream 'Cause I am Oh yes I am And I don't wanna be
[Repeat Chorus]
It hurts to be in bed at night Holding onto nothing but a dream 'Cause I am Oh yes I am And I don't wanna be 'Cause I am Oh yes I am And I don't wanna be
