Well it's sad but true and some day it'll happen to you
When your can do can't keep up with your want to
I ain't never been much of a lover and it never really bothered me none
With the whole world full of adorable women I figured I could catch me one
But lately I've got a problem and I don't know what to do
You see my can do can't keep up with my want to
Well my want to wants me to do everything I used to do
But my can do can't keep up with your want to
I met a Dolly in a roadside tavern of the time and the place was right
We had a table in the corner where the lights were low
And the band was picking out of sight
We were dancing to a fast little ditty but before I got half through
I found my can do can't keep up with my want to
Well my want to wants me to...
Well it's sad but true...
