I Cain't Say No (From "Oklahoma!")

I Cain't Say No - Original Cast/Soundtrack/The New Musical Cast

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 aughta say 'Nix '

When a person tries to kiss a girl

I know she aughta 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 '

Whatcha gonna do when a feller gets flirty

An' starts to talk purty

Whatcha gonna do

S'pposin' that he says

That your lips are like cherrys

Or roses or berries

Whatcha gonna do

S'pposin' that he says t

That yer sweeter than cream

And he's gotta have cream or die

Whatcha gonna do and he talks that way

Spit in his eye

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

I cain't seem to say it at all

I hate to disserpoint a beau

When he is payin' a call

For a while I ack refined and cool

A settin on the velveteen setee

Nen I think of that ol' golden rule

And do for him what he would do for me

I cain't resist a Romeo

In a sombrero and chaps

Soon as I sit on their laps

Somethin' inside of me snaps

I cain't say no
