Carol Burnett - I Cain't Say No [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

It ain't so much a question of not knowing what to do
I knowed whut's right and wrong since I been ten
I heared a lot of stories and I reckon they are true
About how girls're put upon by men
I know I mustn't fall into the pit
But when I'm with a feller, I fergit!
I'm jist a girl who cain't say no
I'm in a turrible fix I always say "come on, le's go"
Jist when I orta say nix!
When a person tries to kiss a girl
I know she orta give his face a smack
But as soon as someone kisses me
I somehow, sorta, wanta kiss him back!
I'm jist a fool when lights are low
I cain't be prissy and quaint
I ain't the type that can faint
How c'n I be whut I ain't?
I cain't say no!
Whut you goin' to do when a feller gits flirty, and starts to talk purty?
Whut you goin' to do?
S'posin' 'at he says 'at yer lips're like cherries, er roses, er berries?
Whut you goin' to do?
S'posin' 'at he says 'at you're sweeter 'n cream
And he's gotta have cream er die?
Whut you goin' to 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
I hate to disserpoint a beau
When he is payin' a call!
Fer a while I ack refined and cool
A settin on the velveteen setee
Nen I think of thet ol' golden rule
And do fer him what he would do fer me!
I cain't resist a Romeo
In a sombrero and chaps
Soon as I sit on their laps
Somethin' inside of me snaps
I cain't say no!
