Lyrics:

I heard about her from a friend of mine He said she lived across the county line The sweetest grape that ever grew on the vine And now that's where I'm spending all my time Her Daddy, Robert and her Mama, Ruth They had a daughter they named Bobbie Sue And now she's eighteen and she knows the truth Nobody's gonna tell her what to do Bob-Bob-Bob-Bob-Bobbie Sue Can't, can't you see my love is true I want to ma-ma-ma-ma-marry you Bob-Bob-Bob-Bob-Bob-Bob-Bobbie Sue I'll take her driving on a Friday night Straight down the highway in the clear moonlight My Chevy's humming as she holds me tight We'll find a preacher and we'll do it right Her Daddy told her that she'd have to wait Her Mama said don't make a big mistake, But we'll keep driving till we're out of state And when they find us it'll be too late. Bob-Bob-Bob-Bob-Bobbie Sue Can't, can't you see my love is true I want to ma-ma-ma-ma-marry you Bob-Bob-Bob-Bob-Bob-Bob-Bobbie Sue
