Well I hope that I don't fall in love with you. 
'Cause falling in love just makes me blue. 
Well the music plays and you display your heart for me to see, 
I had a beer and now I hear you calling out for me. 
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you. 
Well the room is crowded, people everywhere 
And I wonder should I offer you a chair? 
Well if you sit down with this old clown, 
Take that frown and break it, before the evening's gone away, 
I think that we could make it, 
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you. 
Well the night does funny things inside a man. 
These old tomcat feelings you don't understand, 
Well I turn around to look at you; you light a cigarette, 
I wish I had the guts to bum one, but we've never met. 
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you. 
I can see that you are lonesome just like me, 
And it being late, You'd like some some company. 
Well I turn around to look at you, and you look back at me, 
The guy you're with has up and split the chair next to you's free. 
And I hope that you don't fall in love with me. 
Now it's closing time, the music's fading out. 
Last call for drinks, I'll have another stout. 
Well I turn around to look at you; you're nowhere to be found, 
I search the place for your lost face, 
Guess I'll have another round. 
And I think that I just fell in love with you.
