I hate to be in LoVe

I hate to be in love
With its total lack of freedom
And that rush of wild emotions that have you acting dumb.

Yes I hate to be in love
Where you seem to go all goo goo
Sitting holding hands in a crowded room that makes it only you two.

Oh I hate to be in love
On a black and starry night
When you kiss and fondle and you tell her it’s alright.

Boy I hate to be in love
When she takes you home to meet the parents
And they quiz you stating all the do’s and cant’s.

Oh man I hate to be in love
When she cons you into buying that little piece of gold
And she talks about children the house and growing old.

Shit! I hate to be in love
When I’m driving down the road
And I’ve left the girl behind me and my truck is struggling with the load.

Oh hell! It’s great to be free
I’m on my own again
And there’s another town………just around the bend.
