(Victoria)

Oh I got one boyfriend to talk about food with
One boyfriend I like to talk crude with
One boyfriend I share a qualude with
(No not really I don't like qualudes,I Don't believe in drugs it just rhymed
perfect there)
One boyfriend who's mean
One boyfriend who wears a cowboy hat
One boyfriend who tells me I'm not fat
One boyfriend who looks at me like that
(Makes goofy face)
One who is serene

Oh woa is me
The joys of a single life
I'd give up in a minute
If I could be the wife of Mr. Right

Oh I got one boyfriend I work out at the gym with
One boyfriend I sing a church hymm with
One boyfriend I like to drink gin with
One who licks my lips
One boyfriend who won't let me chew gum
One boyfriend I have to hide my fingernails from
One boyfriend who use to sing with
Gladys Night and the Pips

Woa is me
The joys of a single life
I'd give up in a minute
If I could be the wife of Mr. Right

I concluded my search
On the way to the church
To enlist in the nunnery
When I ran into a man who
Began to tell to me
That he had

(Willie Nelson)
One girlfriend I thought was pretty slick
(Laughs through this line,Cannot understand him.Use your Imagination.)
One girlfriend that was kinda witty
One who was short and wise
And one girlfriend with thick red curley hair
And one girlfiend who didn't wear underwear
And one girlfriend who was shaped just like a pear
With Bette Davis eyes

(Victoria & Willie)
But woa is me

(Willie)
The joy of single life
I'd give up in a minute
If I could find a wife that's Mrs. Right

(Victoria & Willie)
We both entered the church doors together that day
Sincere in our motives and in our hearts
But we left one hour later hand in hand
For better or worse
In sickness and in health
Till death do us part
