No, Not Now

Took my gal to the picture show, just the other day

But when I tried to hold her hand

Here's what she had to say

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

No not now, (no not now), no not now, (no not now)

No not now, but maybe next week somehow

I asked my gal to marry me, reckon what she said

She said I wouldn't marry you, if all the rest were dead

No not now, (no not now), no not now, (no not now)

No not now, but maybe next week somehow

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

(you guessed it!)

No not now, (no not now), no not now, (no not now)

No not now, but maybe next week somehow

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

(here's what she said)

No not now, (no not now), no not now, (no not now)

No not now, but maybe next week somehow
