She's In Love With The Boy Lyrics

Katie’s sitting on her old front porch
Watching the chickens peck the ground
There ain’t a whole lot going on tonight
In this one-horse town

Over yonder coming up the road
In a beat-up Chevy truck
Her boyfriend Tommy, he’s laying on the horn
Splashing 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 holding on to one another
To even care about the show

Later on outside the Tasty Freeze
Tommy slips something on her hand
He says, “My high school ring will have to do”
“‘Till I can buy a wedding 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 waiting up ‘till half past twelve
When they come sneaking up the walk
He says, “Young Lady, get on up to your room”
“While me and Junior have a talk”

Momma breaks in, says, “Don’t lose your temper”
“It wasn’t very long ago”
“When you yourself was just a hay-seed plow boy”
“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
She’s in love with the boy
What’s meant to be will always find a way
She’s gonna marry that boy someday
