[Verse 1]
Out working on the virgin ground
Waiting for the time I could head to town
All those pretty girls, I'll be looking for the pearl
That could bring me up and ease me down
Flying down the dusty road
Little foreign wheels putting on a show
My thoughts are hazy about this girl
Might make me crazy, I bet she will
[Chorus]
Never say, never say no
Don't ever let me hear you say you got to go
Never say, never say no
You better say never say no
[Verse 2]
Then she stopped to my surprise
Little foreign wheels want to cross the line
With her voice so soft
Turned the popping Johnny off
Then I began to realize
She said her daddy needs to know
About this old boy before he lets her go
I'll work for him, then time will tell
He'll get to know me, I bet he will
[Chorus][x3]
Never say, never say no
Don't ever let me hear you say you got to go
Never say, never say no
Never let me hear you say you got to go
Out working on the virgin ground
Waiting for the time I could head to town
All those pretty girls, I'll be looking for the pearl
That could bring me up and ease me down
Flying down the dusty road
Little foreign wheels putting on a show
My thoughts are hazy about this girl
Might make me crazy, I bet she will
[Chorus]
Never say, never say no
Don't ever let me hear you say you got to go
Never say, never say no
You better say never say no
[Verse 2]
Then she stopped to my surprise
Little foreign wheels want to cross the line
With her voice so soft
Turned the popping Johnny off
Then I began to realize
She said her daddy needs to know
About this old boy before he lets her go
I'll work for him, then time will tell
He'll get to know me, I bet he will
[Chorus][x3]
Never say, never say no
Don't ever let me hear you say you got to go
Never say, never say no
Never let me hear you say you got to go
