Playing The Field

(album: Andy Williams Sings Steve Allen - 1956)

I'm playing the field
Some other guys
Ought to get wise
And do like me

I'm looking around
Playing it cool
Nobody's fool
Feet on the ground

Oh, I'm playing the field
Walking on air
I haven't a care
The live long day

I'm feeling no pain
I'm making no slips
Taking no trips
Down lovers lane

Oh, I can throw my clothes around
And come home late at night
And mess the papers up
Nobody cares
Sometimes it gets
A little lonesome, true
But that's alright
I never have to dust
Those empty chairs

Oh, I'm playing the field
Bachelor man
Long as I can
That's what I'll be

My, my future is sealed
I'm biding my time
A-sister, and I'm
Playing the field

My, my, my, my
My future is sealed
I'm biding my time
A-sister and I'm
Playing the field
I'm playing the field
