Katie's sittin' on her ol' front porch
watchin' the chickens peck the ground.
There ain't a whole lot goin' on tonight
in this one horse town.
Over yonder and comin' up the road,
in a beat up Chevy truck,
her boyfriend Tommy is layin' on the horn,
splashin' through the mud an' 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 driveparked in the very last row.
They're too busy holdin' on to one another
to even care about the show.
Later on outside the Tastee Freeze
Tommy slips somethin' on her hand.
He says 'My high school ring will ahve to do,
'til I can buy a weddin' 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 waitin' up 'til half past ten,
when they come sneakin' up the walk.
He says 'Young lady get on up to your room
while me and junior have a talk.'
Momma breaks in and says 'Don't lose your temper,
it wasn't very long ago
when you yourself was just a hayseed plowboy
who didn't have a road 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.
And even if they have to run away,
she's gonna marry that boy someday. (Fade out.
