"Woman Shy" lyrics

Woman Shy

You say you ain't never met a man quite like me
And you gonna love me for the rest of your life
You even talking about starting a family
Settling down becoming my little wife

Well I've been fed
That line before
And I can't digest that kinda talk anymore
You guessed it honey
I'm telling you bye, bye, bye
Cause I'm just a little bit woman shy

The last three women
I cared anything about
They all lied to me
And told me the same old thing
With one I made a whole lot of plans
Hired a preacher, rented a church
And bought a big ole diamond ring

But I got to the church
What did I find
She'd made off with the preacher
And that diamond ring of mine
Well that's one reason why
This old boy's still a little bit woman shy

Mhm I'm a woman shy
Woman shy
I'd like to fall in love
But I'm afraid to try
Cause I'm a woman shy
Woman shy
Everyone I ever loved
Told me a lie

But honey you've done wonders for my vanity
And your sweet love has soothed my manly pride
A gal like you could make me lose my sanity
If you'd just half way give it a try

So I better run
Cause it's plain to see
I hang around here
You'll get your hooks into me
But if I ever marry
You're the one I'm gonna try
But right now
I'm just a little bit woman shy

Yes I'm a woman shy
Woman shy
I'm just a little bit woman shy
Mhm yeah
