Never Tell A Woman Yes - The Monkees[00:00:00]
Oh my my my[00:00:18]
In a dusty caravan was a girl of a golden tan[00:00:22]
And she asked me if i was headed to the east[00:00:27]
I politely stepped aside and said i did not need a ride[00:00:31]
That i'd rather take my chances with the heat[00:00:36]
Well when she turned and walked away i saw my big mistake[00:00:40]
There were jewels on her body oh so rare[00:00:45]
Had it been another day i just might have rode away[00:00:50]
With that woman riding off to god knows where[00:00:55]
So the years they came and went and found me living in a tent[00:00:59]
Far above a little marble stream[00:01:05]
And it may have been the light that shone out through the night[00:01:09]
That attracted the hand scratching on my screen[00:01:14]
When i cautiously looked out through the night there was no doubt[00:01:18]
That the owner of that hand was that girl[00:01:23]
So i bid her do come in and i'll open up a tin[00:01:28]
If you'll tell me bout your trip around the world[00:01:33]
Well she said if you think back to the first time that we passed[00:01:37]
I'm sure you'll picture me in all my jewels[00:01:42]
And it was shortly after then that i ran into another man[00:01:46]
And i asked him the same question that i asked you[00:01:51]
But now he he didn't refuse and he took off of both of his shoes[00:01:56]
And climbed aboard my east bound caravan[00:02:01]
Then in the twinkling of the night he had knocked me off the side[00:02:05]
And left me there for dead upon the sand[00:02:10]
And i thought that i was done lying naked in the sun[00:02:15]
When much to my surprise who should pass[00:02:19]
But this old friend of yours he said he knew you from the wars[00:02:24]
And i told him that i thought you'd headed west[00:02:29]
Well he said he should have known cause you like to be alone[00:02:33]
And that's the time i knew you were my one[00:02:38]
So i asked him for a ride just to get here by your side[00:02:42]
And stay here above this stream out of the sun[00:02:48]
Well we sat quite for a while and i began to smile[00:02:52]
And i said well it's strange but i don't care[00:02:57]
And some nights when i'm at rest i wonder if i'd said yes[00:03:01]
If she would've come to me from god knows where[00:03:06]
Or would i have been the one to leave her lying in the sun[00:03:11]
And then ended up with only precious stones[00:03:15]
Or would the woman in my arms be giving me her charms[00:03:20]
If the answer that i gave her wasn't no[00:03:25]
