Look out now I'm runnin' wild

There ain't no holding back this child

I guess you'd say I'm a son of a gun

Livin' just for a life of fun

Here's the secret of my success

Never say yes. No, no, never say yes



Life has taught me one big lesson

Always keep the girlies guessin'

Tell 'em that you love them so

You hate to leave but you gotta go

That's the secret of my success

Never say yes. No, no, never say yes



It's the oldest scheme in the world

And you gotta know how to play it

Tell her yes in so many ways

And never ever say it

That's how I keep goin' on

Here today tomorrow gone

That's the kind of life for me

Being free like I want to be

Here's the secret of my success

Never say yes. No, no, never say yes



It's the oldest scheme in the world

And you gotta know how to play it

Tell her yes in so many ways

And never ever say it

That's how I keep goin' on

Here today tomorrow gone

That's the kind of life for me

Being free like I want to be

Here's the secret of my success

Never say yes. No, no, never say yes

No, no, never say yes
