Ev'ry time, ev'ry time, ev'ry doggone time I fall in love
I get a shovin' around ev'ry time
Ev'ry time, ev'ry time, ev'ry doggone time I try romance
I'm takin' a chance on losin' my mind
I'm gonna learn to be a hermit
And live in a hermit's cave
Until I lose those blues my sweetie gave to me
I'm gonna burn my bridges behind me
I'm gonna hate all you men
The love bug will never find me
Way up on the shelf again
'Cause ev'ry time, ev'ry time, ev'ry doggone time I fall in love
I get a shovin' around ev'ry doggone time.
