The Lady Who Couldn't Be Kissed.

Seq - Dr. J.Pitt-Payne. Kar - Bunty Pritchard Jones. Sept 2000.

I've had my share of lovely amours,
I suppose you've had your share of yours,

Tho' this is only my own point of view,
I make this observation and pass it on to you.

Of all the beautiful ladies I've met with,
there's only one that will ever be missed,

she's the gal that I never could pet with,
she's the lady who couldn't be kissed,

I never thought that I'd ever be strong for,
a gal who made up her mind to resist,

but, it's funny, the one that I long for,
is the lady who couldn't be kissed.

When she first said "No", well, there was a doubt,
but I soon found out, when a gal said "No!"
she knew what she was talkin' about.

I may as well let her memory slumber,
and so I'm crossing her name off my list,

But I'm saving the telephone number,
of the lady who couldn't be kissed.

Of all the beautiful ladies I've met with,
there's only one that will ever be missed,

she's the gal that I never could pet with,
she's the lady who couldn't be kissed,

I never thought that I'd ever be strong for,
a gal who made up her mind to resist,

but, it's funny, the one that I long for,
is the lady who couldn't be kissed.

When she first said "No", well, there was a doubt,
but I soon found out, when a gal said "No!"
she knew what she was talkin' about.

I may as well let her memory slumber,
and so I'm crossing her name off my list,

But I'm saving the telephone number,
of the lady who couldn't be kissed.

There's not so much I've ever passed by,
there's not so much that misses my eye.

Can you imagine the blow to my pride
when I said "How do, Lady?"
she just swept me aside.

Of all the beautiful ladies I've met with,
