Becky was the 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 wavin' that twelve guage,

we tore out of 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 I just gotta get,

Goin' where the night might lead,

I know what I was feelin'

But, what was I thinkin'

(~Same progrresion as before i didnt have tim to put them all in~)

By the county line, the cop's were nippin' on our heels

Pulled off the road, kicked it in four-wheel

Shut off the lights, tore through a corn field

What was I thinkin'

Out the 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 I 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

Ran outside, hood-slidin' like Bo Duke

What was I thinkin'

Finally got her home at half past too late,

Her daddy, in a lawn chair, sittin' on the driveway

Put it in park, and he started my way

What was I thinkin'

Oh...what was I thinkin'

What was I thinkin'

Then she gave a come-and-get-me grin

D#9/5 D#9/5

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 I just gotta get,

Goin' where the night might lead,

I know what I was feelin'

But, what was I thinkin'
