It ain't so much a question of not knowin' what to do
I knowed what's right an' wrong since I've been ten
I heared a lot of stories an' I reckon they're true
About how girls are put upon by men

I know I mustn't fall into the pit
But when I'm with a feller I fergit

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 gir
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 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 jist a girl who cain't say no
Cain't seem to say it at all
Kissin's my favourite food
With or without the mistletoe
I'm in a holiday mood

Other girls are coy and hard to catch
But other girl's ain't havin' any fun
Everytime I lose a wrestling match
I have a funny feelin' that I won

Though I can feel the undertone
I never make a complaint
Till it's too late for restraint
Then when I want to I cain't
I cain't say no.
