Why Is It So Hard to Say No Lyrics

(Tom T. Hall)

Why is it so hard to say no it's only a two letter word
It's not that we say something weird
It's nothing that they haven't heard
Why is it so hard to say no it's just as easy as yes
Some people do things that they shouldn't be doing
Because they can't say no I guess.

Why is it so hard to say no are there some feeling's to hurt
What do they expect when someone suggests
Let's go outside and eat dirt
Why is it so hard to say no instead of just saying OK
No means I don't and I won't and I can't
In other words no means no way.

Why is it so hard to say no it's hard to say no to a friend
But sometimes a friend can be wrong about things
You have to say no in the end
Why is it so hard to say no we don't like to let people down
But we must learn to say it and say it politely
Or people will push us around.

So here is our lesson today a word that can make people frown
A word that can sometimes hurt feelings
No means only a sound
Just put your tongue at the top is everyone ready to go
We're saying that word that is so hard to say
Are you ready yes well, OK it's no...
