I was in love with a married woman, an I just couldn't help myself
But I don't go 'round breakin' up families, an' that's the reason why I left

She looked at me like she could kill me, when I said that we were through
I'm on the side that's doin' the buildin', and not the wreckin' crew

There are so many single women, that are footloose an fancy free
