The Single Girl
(French Version: Je Suis Une Fille Toute Seule - 1968)
Composer(s): Martha Sharpe
First release by: Sandy Posey - 1967



A single girl all alone in a great big town 
The single girl gets so tired of love letting her down 
Life's unreal and the people are phoney 
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 a passing me by 
I'm a single girl, and I know all about men and their lies 
Nobody loves me, cause nobody knows me 
And nobody takes the time to go slowly 
The single girl needs a sweet loving man to lean on 

I lie awake, got up late 
There's rent, I gotta pay 
I need a nightime love 
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'm yet to know 
Waiting somewhere I'm 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 ...
