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
