Becky was a beauty from south Alabama
Her daddy had a heart 1 a nine-pound hammer
Think he even did a little time in the slammer
What was I thinkin

She 2 out one night and met me by the front gate
Her daddy came out wavin' that twelve 3
We tore out the drive he peppered my tailgate
What was I thinkin

Oh, I knew there'd be 4 to pay
But that crossed my mind a little too late... 'cause I was

(Chorus:)
Thinkin 5 a little white tank top sittin right
There in the middle by me
I was 6 bout a long kiss man just gotta get
going where the night 7 lead
I know what I was feelin'
But what was I thinkin
What was I thinkin

By the county line the 8 were nippin on our heals
Pulled off the road and kicked it in four-wheel
Shut off the lights and 9 through a corn field
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

(Chorus)

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 too 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

(Chorus:)
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
going where the night might lead
I know what I was feelin'
But what was I thinkin
What was I thinkin
