No Sad Song
The Wolfe Brothers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A no give and all taker
The funny thing is, she don't even know it
You can′t blame her
She don't know about lonely
She don't wanna a one and only
She′ll get a little wild, have a good time
She don′t know no sad song
As soon as she hits that neon she's all
Tearin′ it up to an up beat track
That girl ain't down with that
Slow hand, slow dance,
No that ain′t her jam
She's a rock all night long
She don′t know no sad song
Give her some of that tempo
She'll be letting them hips go
Hands in the air like she just don't care
Next thing you know
She′s with the girls, up on top of the bar,
She′s got the boys, all falling hard
I can't lie, it′s kinda beautiful
She don't know no sad song
As soon as she hits that neon she′s all
Tearin' it up to an up beat track
That girl ain′t down with that
Slow hand, slow dance,
No that ain't her jam
She's a rock all night long
She don′t know no sad song
She don′t know no sad song
She don't know no sad song
As soon as she hits that neon she′s all
Tearin' it up to an up beat track
That girl ain′t down with that
Slow hand, slow dance,
No that ain't her jam
She′s a rock all night long
She don't know no sad song
She don't know no sad song
She don′t know no sad song
The Wolfe Brothers's song No Sad Song is an ode to a carefree girl who loves to have a good time and doesn't know any sad songs. She's described as a "little heartbreaker" who takes without giving, but it's acknowledged that she isn't to blame for her behavior. The girl is portrayed as someone who doesn't want a serious relationship and enjoys living in the moment. She's depicted as someone who loves to dance and let loose, especially when she hears fast-paced music that makes her want to move.
The lyrics of the song suggest that the girl is someone who lives life to the fullest and doesn't let anything bring her down. She's a confident, outgoing individual who is loved by both men and women. The singer seems to admire her carefree spirit and her ability to enjoy life without dwelling on the negative aspects. The chorus of the song is catchy and the repetition of "She don't know no sad song" emphasizes the message that the girl is always happy and never in need of a somber tune.
