The single girl
All alone in a great big town
The single girl
Gets so tired of love letting her down

The life's unreal and the people are phony
And the nights can get so lonely
The single girl
Needs a sweet loving man to lean on

I'm a single girl
Wondering if love could be passing me by
I'm a single girl
And I know all about men and their lies

Nobody loves me cause nobody knows me
Nobody takes the time to go slowly
The single girl
Needs a sweet loving man to lean on

I've gotta make
My own way
There's rent
I've gotta pay
I need a nighttime lover
To get me through the day

I'm a single girl
All alone in a great big town
I'm a single girl
And I get so tired of love letting me down

But there's a man I've yet to know
Waiting somewhere I've yet to go
Someday I'll have
A sweet loving man to lean on

The single girl
Needs a sweet loving man to lean on
The single girl
Needs a sweet loving man to lean on
