Sweet Tenderoni
[Verse 1]
According to a recent survey
There's five women to every man
Sprung up like the tree of life
All over the land (all over the land)
Each one, they look so fine
I wish they all were mine
Struttin' around with their heads up high
Trying to catch the fellas' eyes

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Feel like there was blooming in the spring
Showing everything, makes my heart wanna sing

[Chorus]
Sweet tenderoni (sweet, sweet, sweet tenderoni)
A man should never be lonely
Sweet tenderoni (sweet, sweet, sweet tenderoni)
Girl, if I could only
Sweet tenderoni (sweet, sweet, sweet tenderoni)
I've got my eye, I've got my eye on you, oh you

[Verse 2]
Can't wait to get off work
To see those girls in those sexy skirts
Some people wearin' those tight blue jeans
They're fitting them to a T
Oh, how they tantalize in every shape and size
Sometimes I have to close my eyes
When I see them walking by
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Watching girls is all I love to do
They wouldn't do the things they do
If they were watching too

[Chorus]
Sweet tenderoni (sweet, sweet, sweet tenderoni)
A man should never be lonely
Sweet tenderoni (sweet, sweet, sweet tenderoni)
Girl, if I could only
Sweet tenderoni (sweet, sweet, sweet tenderoni)
I've got my eye, I've got my eye on you, oh you

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Yeah, watching girls is all I love to do
They wouldn't do the things they do
If they were watching too

[Chorus]
Sweet tenderoni (sweet, sweet, sweet tenderoni)
A man should never be lonely
Sweet tenderoni (sweet, sweet, sweet tenderoni)
Girl, if I could only
Sweet tenderoni (sweet, sweet, sweet tenderoni)
I've got my eye, I've got my eye on you, oh you
Sweet tenderoni (sweet, sweet, sweet tenderoni)
I should never be lonely
Sweet tenderoni (sweet, sweet, sweet tenderoni)
Girl, if I could only
Sweet tenderoni (sweet, sweet, sweet tenderoni)
I've got my eye, I've got my eye on you, oh you
Sweet tenderoni (sweet, sweet, sweet tenderoni)
A man should never be lonely
Sweet tenderoni (sweet, sweet, sweet tenderoni)
[Bridge]
Stop the teasin'... sure look pleasin'...
Sweet tenderoni
Stop the teasin'... won't you start pleasin'...
Sweet tenderoni, love you only

[Outro]
(Sweet, sweet, sweet tenderoni) sweet tenderoni
(Sweet, sweet, sweet tenderoni) don't wanna be lonely
(Sweet, sweet, sweet tenderoni) sweet tenderoni
(Sweet, sweet, sweet tenderoni) come on and love me only
(Sweet, sweet, sweet tenderoni)
(Sweet, sweet, sweet tenderoni)
