She Said No Lyrics

I took her down to the riverside.
I asked her if she wanted to be my blushing bride.
By her reaction I thought we were meant to be,
But she said, "No, no no no no, no."

I pushed her in, so she would die.
I saw the trembling look of horror in her eyes.
I wanted her to go down three times and only come up twice
But she said, "No, no no no no, no."

I ran through the trees til I fell down on my knees and I cried, to myself.

I went back home to get my gun.
Knew right then I'd have to live life on the run.
I hear those hound dogs barking, chasing after me
And I said, "No, no no no no, no."

I ran through the trees til I fell down on my knees and I cried, to myself.

I can hear them closing in.
A penitentiary, don't sound good to me.
So I'll take my life, like I took my wife.
It's the last you'll hear of me, that's the way it's gotta be.
So I'll say goodbye to the world that wasn't meant for me.
