Peter, Paul And Mary - No Choice lyrics

It was a love so big that it filled his heart 'Til it swelled and finally burst apart And where the love spilled out they called it art But he never really had no choice Oh, he had no choice No, he never had no choice When he gave his river a voice He never really had no choice He was thinkin' that the pain came much too soon When he locked himself inside his room Oh it hurt real bad to write that tune But he never really had no choice And there were some who could not understand When he built those castles with his hands And he knew damn well they were only sand But he never really had no choice Oh, he had no choice No, he never had no choice When he gave his river a voice He never really had no choice Sometimes a man, sometimes a boy He made some music and he made some noise But he felt his pain and he felt his joy And he never really had no choice There was a beautiful fire inside of him As he balanced way out on that limb Could'a burned right through that branch so thin But he never really had no choice Oh It was a love so big that it filled his heart ‘Til it swelled and finally burst apart And where the love spilled out they called it art But he never really had no choice Oh, he had no choice No, he never had no choice When he gave his river a voice He never really had no choice Oh, he had no choice No, he never had no choice When he gave his river a voice He never really had no choice He never really had no choice He never really had no choice
