Verse 1
Here I am all alone, without a lady,
No one to hold or kiss, or call my baby,
There's too much room in this double bed,
With an empty pillow where there should be a woman's smile instead,

Bridge
What chance does a romantic to try and get a head,
Women call me a fool and tell me romance is dead,

Chorus:
Tell me what's a single man supposed to do,
When there's only me and there’s no you,
No woman's laughter when there's one not two,
Tell me what's a single man supposed to do,
Tell me what's a single man supposed to do,

Verse 2
Friends tell me being free I should enjoy this,
Cause when you're ready to leave everybody else is,
But what I want is two arms to hold me and a tender kiss,
Soulful eyes, a warm heart a tender kiss,

Bridge
What chance does a romantic to try and get a head,
Women call me a fool and tell me romance is dead,

Chorus: (repeat)
Tell me what's a single man supposed to do,
When there's only me and there's no you,
No woman's laughter when there's one not two,
Tell me what's a single man supposed to do,
Tell me what's a single man supposed to do,
