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
