On the Fence Lyrics

Verse:
Well I'm afraid that it's true, I'm leavin' you
But rest assured, tomorrow I'll be home.
Cuz you know I never could, I never was no good
Lord knows at bein' on my own.
[ Lyrics from: http://www.cloverlyrics.com/e81257-brendan_benson~on_the_fence_lyrics.html ]
Never was the type to want to settle down,
But never had the nerve to ramble on.
So I'm leaving here tonight, but I'll be back before dawn
So leave a light on, and keep my supper warm.

Chorus:
Never been a fighter or a lover,
Never thought that either made much sense.
And I can't decide on this way or the other,
So I live my life just sittin on this fence.

Verse:
And today I feel restless, tomorrow I won't fret this,
There's no tellin' what this boy will do,
But baby guarantee, the moment that I'm free,
That's when I'll come crawlin' back to you.

Chorus

Bridge:
And I don't know how you can stand it, I don't know why you stay,
But you know I never planned it, to turn out this way,
And I would understand it, if you couldn't take any more,
Of my always keeping one foot out the door.

Verse:
And I want to get married, I want to raise a family,
Do like all the other people do,
But what self-respecting woman, would ever have me and not stab me,
When I wanna have my cake and eat it too
