Oklahoma—I Cain’t Say No

It ain’t so much a question of not knowin’ what to do
I knowed what’s right an’ wrong since I been ten.
I heared a lot of stories an’ I reckon they are true
About how girls are put upon by men.
I know I mustn’t fall into the pit
But when I’m with a feller, I fergit!

I’m just a girl who cain’t say ‘No’
I’m in a terrible fix!
I always say ‘Come on, let’s go’
just when I oughta say ‘Nix.’
When a person tries to kiss a girl

    It has nothing to do with it Abby and I apologize. Peter has a bad habit of hijacking post. He has been asked repeatedly not to do it, and is going to be removed from my blog if he continues to do so. He has been asked repeatedly to stay on topic and he does not do so. And I am done fooling with it. So please except my apology.

Patty, you don’t need to apologize. I was asking him, not you. Apparently, he doesn’t check back for follow-up comments. I’m sorry he’s giving you such trouble.

  No he doesnât.
  
  In fact, he wrote me this afternoon saying he had apologized but I see no sign of his comment.
  
  Iâm only going to give this one more day then Iâll be taking further action.
  
  Itâs alright. Itâs just one more sign that people arenât at all who you think them to be in my world.
