Rhett Akins - She Said Yes Lyrics






He'd never had given much thought to dancin'
But she gave a lot of thought to bein' asked
Well he'd never been good
At comin' right on out and askin'
And she'd never been given a chance
But somethin' moved across that old gym floor
When fear was hold'n fast
And to his surprise the words came at last

And she said yes to his half-hearted request
And they held on for dear life till the last song played
They won't let go, it's beyond their control
They lit a flame with the match God had made
When she said yes

From that night on the fire was burnin'
And it sure did shine in his light
And he knew as long
As this old world kept turnin'
He wanted her by his side
So with a ring and a nervous smile
And lines that he rehearsed
He said the sweetest words
That she'd ever heard

And she said yes to his half-hearted request
And they held on for dear life till the last song played
They won't let go, it's beyond their control
They lit a flame with the match God had made
When she said yes

They lit a flame with the match God had made
When she said yes

  52. F.... ....

    He has some of the best songs! Old Dirt Road is my second favorite besides this one. In the 90’s I listened to his albums back to back.

  53. E.... T....

    Rock Hard. Bea utiful song. All the way!

  54. B.... P....

    Back when Love was love and country was country and then the two merged and a great song was created.

    B.... P....

    You are perching to the now choir

  55. B.... C....

    Quite a few years ago, I stumbled on this song. It was the "b" side of a record & I only heard it because the jukebox it was in would occasionally play a random song.
    It might have been chance that introduced me to it, but I fell in love with it immediately!
    "She Said Yes" has to be one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. And I remember dancing to it on my wedding day.
    Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the gateway to some of the best memories of my life!

  56. T.... P....

    Great video..vintage or not.

  57. a.... h....

    2019? I’m just listening because I’m going to a concert of Thomas Rhett and he’ll be there

  58. L.... B....

    Two of my favorite singers! Him and his son!!!!!

    L.... B....

    His son has nothing on him

  59. R.... o....

  66. A.... S....

    So very true

  67. O.... N....

    This song was an influential part of my adolescent development, very moving. Music was and will continue to be, influential. If you want to shape the future, get their ear.

  68. L.... R....

    So I have always loved this song but when.insaw the music video I just started crying. I am a disabled person who wears braces on my legs and the beginning where it says she'd gave alot og thought to being aak just broke my heart. I didn't even go to my senior prom because I knew no one wanted to.try and dance with me. This song will be played at my wedding whenever that happens. This music video touches me in a way nothing else has. Thanks for this Rhett Akins

    L.... R....

    Hold your head up and God bless you. This is a beautiful song.

    L.... R....

    God bless you. Prom isnt anything anyway 😘

    L.... R....

  77. L.... S....

    This describes me and billy exactly

  78. E.... S....

  81. D.... C....

    A cool song

    I love this guy but what is weirding me out totally is he looks exactly like my high school crush. Its odd and weird and its weirding me out.

  90. 9.... ....

    That song makes me cry to

  91. h.... h....

    This is a great song.

  92. F.... J....

    I wish Rhett Akins would come out with some new good music.

    F.... J....

    FRANKIE JOHNNY you must not know about his EQUALLY country and EQUALLY talented son Thomas Rhett (something to do with my hands get me some of that it goes like this make me wanna die a happy man unforgettable and too many others to list)

  93. J.... D....

    Rhett,what a song.I haven't heard your voice in a while.your son is doing great with his music.in fact he's coming to buffalo this year.

  94. O.... O....

    One of the sweetest songs in country music.

  95. F.... B....

    love himmmmm

  96. T.... D....

    Rhett is the man

  97. m.... l....

    It is touching that the woman in this video was made to be physically handicapped. There had to be a reason why she had never been "given the chance" to dance with a guy before. Wow! I have loved this song for about 25 years or so, and i now have a new appreciation for it. It is over the top beautiful, and not your typical love song, because of the special circumstances involved. Awesome! I do wonder if he originally wrote the song about a physically handicapped girl, or was the video, showing the girl being handicapped, just an idea? Anyway, this would be a great wedding song. Of course, there are pop, country, metal, rock, oldies, r&b songs, jazz, folk, whatever song from other genres of music that would also be awesome wedding songs. There is one other country wedding song i can think of off the top of my head that would be an awesome wedding song. That song is "Amazed" by Lonestar.

  98. j.... ....

    NOW THIS IS COUNTRY MUSIC

    j.... ....

    jason lovely how is this more or less country than what's on the country radio today

  99. D.... H....
