Why do they always say no
When they know they mean yes all the time
You ask a girlie for a kiss or two
She'll let you know that's something I don't do
How can they tell such a lie
And still look you straight in the eye
Whenever they say no to you go right ahead
Cause it's 10 to 1 that they mean yes instead
Oh, why do they always say no
When you know they mean yes all the time

Why do they always say no
When you know they mean yes all the time
You start to love them and they pout and fret
Down in their hearts they want all they can get
What keeps them acting that way
They don't mean a word that they say
A girl that said she'd never marry me
She's the mother of my happy family
Why do they always say no
You know they mean yes all the time

Why do they always say no
When you know they mean yes all the time
You ask your girlie for a kiss or two
She's lets you know that's something I don't do
How can they tell such a lie
And still look you straight in the eye
Whenever they say no to you go right ahead
Cause it's 10 to 1 that they mean yes instead
Oh, why do they always say no
When you know they mean yes all the time

You know they mean yes all the time
