Taken and Fakin Lyrics

I met another pretty girl with a spark in her eye

But my, oh my, to my surprise

She already had a guy

I heard it a thousand times

Ain't it a crime

To hear a woman say I met you at the wrong time

And you know that she ain't living her best life

And there's nothing really there but a blank stare

When you ask her why

She said, what about you

Does it hurt you too

What do you do

I said I'm ready for when the opportunity's there

And I leave it up to fate without a care

And there's a thing I say

Every time I get a little impatient

I rather be single and waiting

Than taken and fakin

Don't it ever get lonely

Don't you ever feel time's running out

I'm on my own time without a doubt

But of course I do

But life ain't a list of things you just get through

I'm ready for when the opportunity's there

And I leave it up to fate without a care

And there's a thing I say

Every time I get a little impatient

I rather be single and waiting

Than taken and fakin

And I know it's easier said than done

And it's hard to find the one

Even when they're right in front of your eyes

Are you ready for when the opportunity's there

And do you leave it up to fate without a care

Is there a thing you say every time you get a little impatient

I'm ready for when the opportunity's there

And I leave it up to fate without a care

And there's a thing I say

Every time I get a little impatient

I rather be single and waiting

Than taken and fakin

Taken and fakin

Taken and fakin

My, oh my, to my surprise
