(Michael O'Donoghue)      Single bars and single women with a single thought in mind   Just to make it till the morning looking for what they can find   For a man they won't remember for a night they can't forget   Do you come to this place often, may I light your cigarette?      Drinkin' beer in Amarillo passing time and swaping jokes   Hoping for a new beginning but beginning to lose hope   And you're waiting for that moment when a glance becomes a stare   Mmm, what's that perfume that you're wearingm haven't I met you somewhere?      Find a matchbook in the morning with a name and number scrawled   When you phone, a woman answers and you wish you'd never called   Oh, they're friendly when they meet you but they're strangers when they go   Ah, do you mind if I come join you, would you like to dance one more?      --- Instrumental ---      And it's gettin' near to closing and the seconds pass like years   Lots of friends to share the laughter not a one to share the tears   Oh, and you wish they'd change that juke box 'cause you know every song it plays   Can I drop you off at my place, oh, what's the matter are you gay?      You gotta twenty in your pocket, got your toothbrush in your purse   Life could get a whole lot better but it better not get worse   Single bars and single women with a single thought in mind   Just to make it till the morning looking for what they can find...
