Black Horse And The Cherry Tree (Live On 'Later With Jools Holland' 2004)

Two, three, four

(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)
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.
"No, no. You're not the one for me.
"No, no. No, no-no-no.
"No, no. You're not the one for me."

(Ooooo, woo-hoo)

No, no, no, no.

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.
"No, no, you're not the one for me.
"No, no, no, no-no-no.
"No, no, you're not the one for me."

(Ooooo, woo-hoo) (not the one for me, yeah-eh)
(Ooooo, woo-hoo)
Said no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no-no
You're not the one for me
No, 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
