Black Horse and the Cherry Tree lyrics

Two, three, four!

(Woo-hoo, woo-hoo) (×2)

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)

When the big black horse said, ‘Look this way.’

He said, ‘Hey lady, will you marry me?’

(Woo-hoo, woo-hoo)

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.’

(Oh, woo-hoo)

And my heart had 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 it to a place in the middle of nowhere

With a big black horse and a cherry tree.

(Woo-hoo, woo-hoo)

Now It won’t come back ’cause it’s oh so happy.

And now I’ve got a hole for the world to see.

(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.’

(Oh, woo-hoo)

(Not the one for me, yeah-eh.)

(Oh, woo-hoo)

I said, ‘No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

You’re not the one for me.’

‘No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

You’re not the one for me.’

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.
