What Was I Thinkin'

Becky was a beauty from South Alabama

Her daddy had a heart like a nine pound hammer

Think he even did a little time in the slammer

What was I thinkin'?

She snuck out one night and met me by the front gate

Her daddy came out wavin' that 12-gauge

We tore out the drive, he peppered my tailgate

What was I thinkin'?

Oh, I knew there'd be hell to pay

But that crossed my mind a little too late

'Cause I was thinkin' 'bout a little white tank top

Sittin' right there in the middle by me

I was thinkin' 'bout a long kiss

Man, just gotta get goin' where the night might lead

I know what I was feelin'

But what was I thinkin'?

What was I thinkin'?

By the county line, the cops were nippin' on our heels

Pulled off the road and kicked it in four-wheel

Shut off the lights and tore through a cornfield

What was I thinkin'?

Out the other side, she was hollerin', "Faster"

Took a dirt road, had the radio blastin'

Hit the honky-tonk for a little close dancin'

What was I thinkin'?

Oh, I knew there'd be hell to pay

But that crossed my mind a little too late

'Cause I was thinkin' 'bout a little white tank top

Sittin' right there in the middle by me

I was thinkin' 'bout a long kiss

Man, just gotta get goin' where the night might lead

I know what I was feelin'

But what was I thinkin'?

When a mountain of a man with a "Born to kill" tattoo

Tried to cut in, I knocked out his front tooth

We ran outside, hood slidin' like Bo Duke

What was I thinkin'?

I finally got her home at a half past two, later

Daddy's in a lawn chair sittin' on the driveway

Put it in park as he started my way

What was I thinkin'?

Oh, what was I thinkin'?

Oh, what was I thinkin'?

Then she gave a "Come and get me" grin

And like a bullet, we were gone again

'Cause I was thinkin' 'bout a little white tank top

Sittin' right there in the middle by me

I was thinkin' 'bout a long kiss

Man, just gotta get goin' where the night might lead

I know what I was feelin'

Yeah, I know what I was feelin'

But what was I thinkin'?

What was I thinkin'?

I know what I was feelin'

What was I thinkin'?

Guess I was thinkin' 'bout that tank top

Those cutoffs
