SHE'S IN LOVE WITH THE BOY

Katie's sittin' on her old front porch Watchin' the chickens peck the ground There ain't a whole lot goin' on tonight in this one horse town Over yonder comin' up the road in a beat up Chevy truck Her boyfriend Tommy, he's layin' on the horn Splashin' through the mud and the muck Her Daddy says he ain't worth a lick When it comes to brains he got the short end of the stick But Katie's young and man she just don't care She'd follow Tommy anywhere She's in love with the boy She's in love with the boy She's in love with the boy And even if they have to run away she's gonna marry that boy someday Katie and Tommy at the drive-in movie Parked in the very last row They're too busy holdin' on to one another To even care about the show Later on outside the Tastee Freeze Tommy slips somethin' on her hand He says my high school ring will have to do 'Til I can buy a weddin' band Her Daddy says he ain't worth a lick When it comes to brains he got the short end of the stick But Katie's young and man she just don't care She'd follow Tommy anywhere She's in love with the boy She's in love with the boy She's in love with the boy And even if they have to run away she's gonna marry that boy someday Her Daddy's waitin' up 'til half past twelve When they come sneakin' up the walk He says young lady get on up to your room While me and junior have a talk Mama breaks in says don't lose your temper It wasn't very long ago When you yourself was just a hay-seed plowboy Who didn't have a row to hoe My Daddy said you wasn't worth a lick When it came to brains you got the short end of the stick But he was wrong and honey you are too Katie looks at Tommy like I still look at you She's in love with the boy She's in love with the boy She's in love with the boy What's meant to be will always find a way She's in love with the boy She's in love with the boy…
