Last night you said you'd pick me up at eight

Take me into town baby for a date

Well I'm still waitin' here and it's half past two

And I don't want to love you but I do



When you took me to that place with a little dance floor

You said you'd never been in there before

So how come the waitress smiled and winked at you

Oh I don't want to love you but I do



I don't want to love you that's a fact

There ain't one good thing about you baby

From your boots to your cowboy hat

And I've seen the way the girls all look at you

And I don't want to love you but I do

[ guitar - steel ]

Now you say you're gonna stop this foolin' around

And all you want to do is settle down

Well I don't believe a single word is true

And I don't want to love you but I do



I don't want to love you that's a fact...

No I don't want to love you but I do
