Lyrics

[Intro]
Hey, sucker
What the hell's got into you?
Hey, sucker
Now there's nothing you can do
[Verse 1]
Well, I hadn't seen your face around town awhile
So I greeted you with a knowing smile
When I saw that girl upon your arm
I knew she won your heart with a fatal charm
I said, "Soul Boy, let's hit the town!"
I said, "Hey, boy, what's with the frown?"
But in return, all you could say
Was "Hi George, meet my fiancée"
[Chorus]
Young guns having some fun
Crazy ladies, keep 'em on the run
Wise guys realize
There's danger in emotional ties
See me, single and free
No tears, no fears, what I want to be
One, two, take a look at you
Death by matrimony!
[Verse 2]
Hey, sucker
What the hell's got into you?
Hey, sucker
Now there's nothing you can do
A married man? You're out of your head
Sleepless nights on an H.P. bed
A daddy by the time you're twenty-one
If you're happy with a nappy, then you're in for fun
But you're here and you're there
Well, there's guys like you just everywhere
Looking back on the good old days?
Well, this young gun says "caution pays"
[Chorus]
Young guns having some fun
Crazy ladies, keep 'em on the run
Wise guys realize
There's danger in emotional ties
See me, single and free
No tears, no fears, what I want to be
One, two, take a look at you
Death by matrimony!
[Bridge]
I remember when we had such fun
And everything was fine
I remember when we used to have a good time
Partners in crime
Tell me that's all in the past
And I will gladly walk away
Tell me that you're happy now
Turning my back
Nothing to say!
[Chorus]
Young guns having some fun
Crazy ladies, keep 'em on the run
Wise guys realize
There's danger in emotional ties
See me, single and free
No tears, no fears, what I want to be
One, two, take a look at you
Death by matrimony!
[Verse 3]
Hey tell this jerk to take a hike
There's somethin' 'bout that boy I don't like
Well, sugar, he don't mean the things he said
Just get him outta my way, 'cause I'm seeing red
We got plans to make, we got things to buy
And you're wasting time on some creepy guy
Hey, shut up, chick, that's a friend of mine
Just watch your mouth, babe, you're out of line
Get back
Hands off
Go for it!
Get back
Hands off
Get back
Hands off
Go for it!
Get back
Hands off
Get back
Hands off
Go for it!
Get back
Hands off
Get back
Hands off
Go for it!
Get back
Hands off
[Chorus]
Young guns having some fun
Crazy ladies, keep 'em on the run
Wise guys realize
There's danger in emotional ties
See me, single and free
No tears, no fears, what I want to be
One, two, take a look at you
Death by matrimony!
[Chorus]
Young guns having some fun
Crazy ladies, keep 'em on the run
Wise guys realize
There's danger in emotional ties
See me, single and free
No tears, no fears, what I want to be
One, two, take a look at you
Death by matri-matri-
[Chorus]
Young guns having some fun
Crazy ladies, keep 'em on the run
Wise guys realize
There's danger in emotional ties
See me, single and free
No tears, no fears, what I want to be
One, two, take a look at you
[Outro]
Get back
Hands off
Get back
Hands off
Go for it!

Go for it!
Get back

Hands off
Go for it!

Go for it!
