I Cain't Say No

I Cain'T Say No - Celeste Holm

It ain't so much a question of knowin' what to do

I knowed what's right an' wrong since i've been ten

I've heard a lot of stories and i reckon they're true

About how girls are put upon by men

I know i musn't fall into the pit

But when i'm with a feller

I ferget

I'm just a girl who cain't say no

I'm in a terrible fix

I always say come on let's go

Just when i oughta say nix

When a person tries to kiss a girl

I know she oughta give his face a smack

But as soon as someone kisses me

I somehow sorta want to kiss him back

I'm just a fool when lights are low

I cain't be prissy an' quaint

I ain't the type that can faint

How can i be what i ain't

I cain't say no

Watcha gonna do when a feller gets flirty

And starts to talk purty

Whatcha gonna do

Supposin' that he says

That your lips are like cherries

Or roses or berries

Whatcha gonna do

Supposin' that he says

That yer sweeter than cream

And he's gotta have cream or die

Whatcha gonna do when he talks that way

Spit in his eye

I'm just a girl who cain't say no

Cain't seem to say it at all

I hate to disserpoint a beau

When he is payin' a call

Fer a while i act refined and cool

A settin on the velveteen setee

Then i think of that ol' golden rule

And do fer him what he would do fer me

I cain't resist a romeo

In a sombero and chaps

As soon as i sit on their laps

Something inside of me snaps

I cain't say no
