Single Again Lyrics
I married a man, oh then
I married a man, oh then
I married a man
He was the plague of my life
Oh and I wish I was single again
I wish I was single again
'Cause when I was single my pockets did jingle
And I wish I was single again
And then he beat me he banged me, oh then
He beat me he banged me, oh then
He beat me he banged me
He swore he would hang me
And I wish I was single again
He went for the rope, oh then
He went for the rope, oh then
He went for the rope
And I think think I was broke
And then I wish I was single again
I wish I was single again
'Cause when I was single my pockets did jingle
And I wish I was single again
And then my husband he died, oh then
My husband he died, oh then
My husband he died
And I laughed 'til I cried
Oh, to think I was single again
I married another, oh then
I married another, oh then
I married another
He's the devils grandfather
Oh, I wish I was single again
I wish I was single again
'Cause when I was single my pockets did jingle
And I wish I was single again
And then he beat me he banged me, oh then
He beat me he banged me, oh then
He beat me he banged me
He swore he would hang me
And I wish I was single again
I married a man, oh then
I married a man
He was the plague of my life
Oh and I wish I was single again
'Cause when I was single my pockets did jingle
And I wish I was single again
He beat me he banged me, oh then
He beat me he banged me
He swore he would hang me
And I wish I was single again
He went for the rope, oh then
He went for the rope
And I think think I was broke
And then I wish I was single again
'Cause when I was single my pockets did jingle
And I wish I was single again
My husband he died, oh then
My husband he died
And I laughed 'til I cried
Oh, to think I was single again
I married another, oh then
I married another
He's the devils grandfather
Oh, I wish I was single again
'Cause when I was single my pockets did jingle
And I wish I was single again
He beat me he banged me, oh then
He beat me he banged me
He swore he would hang me
And I wish I was single again

She hates the relationships she gets herself into, but does that cause her the stop? No. She needs them
she sure does know how to pick 'em har har har
i love this song
This is an old folk song that’s been around in the US for over 100 years. It usually is sung by a man about a wife though.
seems this chick has relationship issues.
cool ass song though!
Cool song..but fucking weird
pretty harsh, are they all metaphors??
she escapes one bad relationship to only be caught in another. ironic.
