No, No, No (I'd Rather Be Free) - Rex Allen, Jr.

She was lonely and shy

Younger than I when it all began

I'd been around nothin' tied me down

I was free as the wind

Then I showed her the nights

And the neon lights that she'd never known

But as time went by

I saw in her eyes that something was wrong

She said don't you know I love you

Can't you tell by now

Why don't we get married

And settle down

I said no no no no no no no

No that's not my style

Not my style

Yes I know that you love me so

Let's wait a while

I said no no no no no no no

No I'd rather be free

And golden rings would only bring

A change for you and me

As the days went by

I watched her changing and I could tell

Things I said about being free

Well she learned too well

Then there came a time when I realized

She was slipping away

It was then I knew I was changin' too

And I heard myself say

Don't you know I love you

Can't you tell by now

Why don't we get married

Settle down

She said no no no no no no no

No that's not my style

Not's my style

Yes I know that you love me so

But let's wait a while

She said no no no no no no no

No I'd rather be free

And golden rings would only bring

A change for you and me

Oh no no no no no no no

No that's not my style

Not my style

Yes I know that you love me so

Let's wait a while

I said no no no no no no no
