lyrics

I know I should be fine with television
And playing a little music with my friends
But all around I just see temptation
And I might get into trouble this weekend

'Cause marriage ain't a word, it's a sentence
And you know that we're all serving life
Dressed up in our Sunday Best
And out on Saturday night without the wife

Well, there's waitresses and flight attendants
And cute girls anywhere you go
What's the harm if I'm just looking?
Especially if no one every knows

'Cause marriage ain't a word, it's a sentence
And you know that we're all serving life
Dressed up in our Sunday Best
And out on Saturday night without the wife

The cheating song, it's a country classic
But I am in it for the long haul
I just think that bartender likes me
'Cause she's been making all of my drinks extra tall

'Cause marriage ain't a word, it's a sentence
And you know that we're all serving life
Dressed up in our Sunday Best
And out on Saturday night without the wife
And out on Saturday night without the wife
