Why Not Me- The Judds

Listen to the song here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fjjv_EemeEY

You've been lookin' for love all around the world
Baby, don't you know this country girl's still free?
Why not me?
Well, you've finally come down to your old hometown
Your kentucky girl's been waiting patiently
Why not me?

Why not me on a rainy day?
Why not me to love your cares away?
Why not me?
Why not me when the nights get cold?
Why not me when you're growin' old?
Why not me?

You've been searchin' from here to singapore
Ain't it time that you notice the girl next door, baby
Why not me?
You had to see if the world was round
It's time that you learned how good settlin' down could be
Why not me?

Why not me on a rainy day?
Why not me to love your cares away?
Why
not me?
Why not me when the nights get cold?
Why not me when you're
growin' old?
Why not me?

You've been lookin' for love all around the world
Baby, don't you know this country girl's still free?
Baby, why not me?

So, I guess this one pretty much speaks for itself. I get compliments from friends and family and coworkers, "You're so smart!" "You're so pretty!" "You don't have anything to worry about!" "You'd be a catch for any man!" "You're so talented!"

And I'm still single. Not for lack of trying... or looking... and I even stopped looking for a long time under the pretense that when you least expect it, the thing you're looking for will present itself. I say, PROVE IT! Even the "potentials" give me the sweet compliments and subtle (and sometimes not so subtle) flatteries... followed by my LEAST favorite three letter word, "but." From the potentials, I get, "You're beautiful and talented and funny and smart and everything any man should be proud of... BUT..."

BUT WHAT????

Ugh... I just don't get it.
