But when I tried to hold her hand,
Here's what she had to say.
[Chorus:]
No not now, (no not now), no not now, (no not now),
No not now, but maybe next week somehow.
Walked my gal home to the door, and asked her for a kiss,
But she quickly turned away, and then she told me this.
[Chorus]
I asked my gal to marry me, reckon what she said,
She said I wouldn't marry you, if all the rest were dead.
[Chorus]
But she went and changed her mind, how I regret that day,
'cause every since I married her, here's all that she can say.
[Spoken:] (you guessed it!)
[Chorus]
I stayed out too late last night, on a little spree,
And when I asked her to let me in, here's all she said to me.
[Spoken:] (here's what she said)
[Chorus]
