Why?
The Byrds

Keep sayin' no to her since she was a baby
Keep sayin' no to her, not even maybe.
Why? Why?

You say there's a limit there, she can't go past that
She doesn't believe you, she don't think that's where it's at.
Why? Why?

Say she can't change that, it's the way you've always done it
She don't care abut that, she thinks you've just begun it.
Why? Why?

You say it's a dead old world, cold and not living
I don't know where you live but you're not living.
Why? Why?

Keep sayin' no to her since she was a baby
Keep sayin' no to her, not even maybe.
Why? Why?
