Lyrics:

Becky was a beauty from South Alabama

Her Daddy had a hard lock and nine pound hammer

Think He even did a little time in the slammer

What was I thinking?

She snuck out one night and met me by the front gate

Her daddy came out waving that twelve gage

We tore out the drive, he peppered my tailgate

What was I thinking?



Oh I knew there’d be Hell to pay,

But that crossed my mind a little too late!



Chorus

Cuz’ I was thinking ‘bout a little white tank top sitting right there in the middle by me

I was thinking about a long kiss man just gotta get goin’ with a night like me

Well I know what I was feeling But What was I thinking?

But What was I thinking?



What was I thinking?



By the county line the cops were nipping on our heels

Pulled off the road kicked it to 4 wheel

Shut off the lights, tore through a corn field

What was I thinking?

Out the other side she was hollerin’ “Faster!?

Took the third road had the radio blastin’

Hit the Honky Tonk for a little close dancin’

What was I thinking?



Oh I knew there’d be Hell to pay,

But that crossed my mind a little too late!



Chorus



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 sliding like Bullduke

What was I thinking?

I finally got her home half past too late

Her daddy’s in a lawn chair sittin’ in the driveway

Put it in park as he started my way,

What was I thinking?



Oh What was I thinking?

Oh What was I thinking?



And she gave a come and get me grin,

And like a bullet we were gone again!



Chorus



What was I thinking?
