Mark Lowry - The Date Adventure lyrics

rate me

Spoken:

Hey... Yo... I'm Mark!

I'm Mark!

Hi, I'm Mark. I'm a Christian guy with a great sense of humor and hm...

they tell me, a heart as big as my forehead.

If you're lonely, and you're a Christian young lady

why don't you call me?

At 1-900-LUV-MARK

That's 1-900-L-U-V-M-A-R-K

*(phone rings)*

Hello?

Hey Mark!

Uh, hey buddy, I think you got the wrong number!

No, Mark, this is Steven Curtis!

Steven Curt- No!

Don't tell me! I'm not goin' on one o' them blind dates you set up!

Look, I've found the girl for you this time.

Man you gotta trust me on this!

Yea, right!

Mark, listen, she has got a great smile!

She's got beautiful eyes!

Oh yea, and she's got what?

An arm, a leg, a head, a neck, the whole package?

Are the eyes pointin' in the same direction this time?

Mark, come on! It won't be that bad!

It'll be... an adventure.

*(hangs phone up)*

Goin' on a blind date!

Got a call from Steven.

It was just as I'd feared!

Said he'd found my ideal girl,

If I could overlook her beard!

Another night out with a stranger,

I just hope she's of the human race!

I bought a dozen roses,

Figured, how could they hurt?

And prayed my date would not be Godzilla in a skirt!

Then walkin' up to her front door,

I fought the urge to turn and run.

Would this girl be my Cinderella,

Or another Atilla, the Hun?

I got another blind date!

I'd better close my eyes!

Why do all my blind dates,

attract so many flies?

Searchin' for my honey,

But all I ever get is stung!

(All I ever get is stung!)

I think that I'll stay a bachelor.

Who-oa!

This is the date adventure!

Yea-ah!

Don't think that I'm picky,

I know I'm not so hot.

But gettin' ready for a date,

Should not include a Rabies shot!

Why must dating be such a challenge?

Why can't it be fun instead?

All I want's a girl,

Not Mister Ed!

Got another blind date,

I got a trail to blaze.

Should I take her to dinner,

Or to a field to graze?

Searchin' for my honey,

But all I ever get is stung!

(All I ever get is stung!)

I think that I'll stay a bachelor,

Whoa-oh!

This is the date adventure!

For the right girl,

I would stick out my neck,

And let her pick up the check.

But I must wait

For my mate

Dating's the toughest journey.

When you pick a wife you can't be wrong,

So that's why I go on blind dates,

And bring Alpo along!

Yeah-heh!

Oh, got another blind date,

I'd better get ready to hide!

Got another blind date,

So pass the blind fold please!

Instead of her number she'll just leave me her fleas!

Searchin' for my honey,

But all I ever get is stung!

(All I ever get is stung!)

I think that I'll stay a bachelor,

Whoa-oh!

This is the date adventure!

Come on, this is the date adventure!

(This is the date adventure!)

Better close, better close my eyelids!

I've got another blind date!

(This is the date adventure!)
