The Olms She Said No lyrics

I took her down to the riverside. I asked her if she wanted to be my blushing bride. By her reaction I thought we were meant to be, but she said, "No, no no no no, no."

I pushed her in, so she would die. I saw the trembling look of horror in her eyes. I wanted her to go down three times and only come up twice but she said, "No, no no no no, no."

I ran through the trees til I fell down on my knees and I cried, to myself.

I went back home to get my gun. I knew right then I'd have to live life on the run. I hear those hound dogs barking, chasing after me and I said, "No, no no no no, no."


I ran through the trees til I fell down on my knees and I cried, to myself.

I can hear them closing in. A penitentiary, don't sound good to me. So I'll take my life, like I took my wife. It's the last you'll hear of me, that's the way it's gotta be. So I'll say goodbye to the world that wasn't meant for me.
