[Verse 1]
Suddenly I found a pretty little buttercup
While I was walking one day
And she was such a pretty little buttercup
I saw her walking one day
I said, "Hey, you're such a pretty little buttercup
I'd like to take you away... but oh!
You're such a pretty little buttercup
I don't believe that you'd stay"

[Chorus]
Oh no way! No-no-no way!
Oh no way! No-no-no way!

[Verse 2]
So I said, "And so my pretty little buttercup
I'll take you out on a date
And if you 'll be my pretty little buttercup
I 'll pick you up around 8"

[Chorus]
Oh no way! No-no-no way!
Oh no way! No-no-no way!

[Verse 3]
So, I came to pick her up just like I 'd said...
That Friday night, around 8
And I'd never seen a prettier little buttercup
Than the one I saw on that day
I said, "Hey, you 're such a pretty little
Buttercup I'd like to take you away
But oh! You're such a pretty little buttercup
I don't believe that you'd stay"
[Chorus]
Oh no way! No-no-no way!
Oh no way! No-no-no way!
