feelin' single - seein' double

emmylou harris

well i really had a ball last night

i held all the pretty boys tight

i was feelin' single

seein' double

wound up in a whole lotta trouble

but today i'll face the big fight

but i really had a ball last night

when i came home from work this morning

my baby was feelin' low

and he told me what was on his mind

then he told me where i could go

well i didn't go where he told me to

cause the water was cold in the lake

now there's something fishy 'bout this whole deal

i don't see where i made my mistake

well i really had a ball last night

i held all the pretty boys tight

i was feelin' single

seein' double

wound up in a whole lotta trouble

but today i'll face the big fight

but i really had a ball last night

when i woke up this morning

like me

the sun was high

well i started walking the long way home

just to think of an alibi

well i couldn't think of a darn gawn thing

that hadn't already been said

so i guess i better just play it by ear

cause i'm already dead

well i really had a ball last night

i held all the pretty boys tight

i was feelin' single

seein' double

wound up in a whole lotta trouble

but today i'll face the big fight

but i really had a ball last night

yes today i'll face the big fight

but i really had a ball last night
