Burl Ives - When I was single lyrics

Burl Ives - When I was single

When I was single I used to comb my hair

Noo that I'm mairrit I huvnae the time to spare

Chorus:

Oh, it's a life it's a life, a weary weary life.

It's better tae be single than tae be a marrit wife.

When I was single I used a powder Puff,

Noo that I'm mairrit I canny afford the stuff-

One shouts "Mammy, help me intae my pram."

The ither shouts "Daddy, gie me a piece an' jam."

One shouts "Mammy, help me intae bed."

The ither shouts, "Daddy, scratch my wooden leg."
