He walked in the room and all he had to do was smile
His talk was so sweet but let there be no doubt
Not gonna sing so pretty, if he don't do duets
Mr. Right turns out to be Mr. Wrong
And like me, he's tired of doin' it alone, oh yes he is
He said, "You sure sing pretty but I don't do duets"
Not gonna sing so pretty, if he don't do duets
This is as far as it goes and as close as it gets"
For the faithful, ready, steady kind
Not gonna sing so pretty, if he don't do duets
Enough of, "I love you baby, you're the best I ever knew
This is as far as it goes and as close as it gets"
Not gonna fall for those lines, the lies and regrets
I don't wanna make the same mistake again
Not gonna sing so pretty, if he don't do duets
When it comes to men I fall for the guys with the bedroom eyes
But I'm not ready for anyone like you
Not gonna sing so pretty, if he don't do duets
But I'm not ready for anyone like you
Mr. Right turns out to be Mr. Wrong
It starts out great but before too long
He's out there singin' on his own
Waitin' in his arms, a fool would have known was a danger zone
I did it again, I always make the same mistake
It starts out great but before too long
No more, "I'm not ready for anyone like you"
He said, "I love you baby, you're the best I ever knew
While I was movin' in, he was movin' out
Said I wish that I could lose my mind
Not gonna sing so pretty, if he don't do duets
He said, "I love you baby, you're the best I ever knew
He said, "You sure sing pretty but I don't do duets"
