Lyrics

(Woo-hoo,woo-hoo)
(Woo-hoo,woo-hoo)

Well my heart knows me better than I know myself
So I'm gonna let it do all the talking
(Woo-hoo,woo-hoo)
I came across a place in the middle of nowhere
With a big black horse and a cherry tree
(Woo-hoo,woo-hoo)

I felt a little fear, upon my back
I said don't look back, just keep on walking
(Woo-hoo,woo-hoo)
But the big black horse said look this way
He said,'' hey lady will you marry me? ''

But I said no, no, no, no-no-no
I said no, no, you're not the one for me
No, no, no, no-no-no
I said no, no, you're not the one for me

(Ooooo,woo-hoo)

And my heart hit a problem, in the early hours
So I stopped it dead for a beat or two
(Woo-hoo,woo-hoo)
But I cut some cord, and I shouldn't have done that
And it won't forgive me after all these years
(Woo-hoo,woo-hoo)

So I sent to a place in the middle of nowhere
With a big black horse and a cherry tree
(Woo-hoo,woo-hoo)
But it won't come back, cause it's oh so happy
And now I've got a hole for the world to see yeah
(Woo-hoo,woo-hoo)

And it said no, no, no, no-no-no
It said no, no, you're not the one for me
No, no, no, no-no-no
It said no, no, you're not the one for me

(Whoo-hoo,woo-hoo)
Said no, nah, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
You're not the one for me
Nah, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
You're not the one for me

(Kazoo break)

Big black horse and a cherry tree
I can't quite get there cause my heart's forsaken me
Big black horse and a cherry tree
I can't quite get there cause my heart's forsaken me
