What Was I Thinkin'

Becky was a beauty from south Alabama
Her daddy had a heart like a nine pound hammer
I 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 a-waving that twelve gauge
We tore out the drive he peppered my tail gate
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 four wheel
Shut off the lights and tore through a corn field
What was I thinkin'?
Out the other side she was hollerin' faster
Took the 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 late
Her 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'
But what was I thinkin'?
Guess I was thinkin' 'bout that tank top
