[00:08.65]Katie''''s sitting on the old front porch
[00:12.03]Watching the chickens peck the ground
[00:15.98]There isn''''t a whole lot going on tonight
[00:19.99]In this one horse town
[00:23.62]Over yonder, coming up the road
[00:27.66]In a beat-up Chevy truck
[00:31.49]Her boyfriend Tommy, he''''s laying on the horn
[00:35.04]Splashing through the mud and the muck
[00:39.37]Her daddy says, "he ain''''t worth a lick
[00:43.00]When it came to brains, he got the short end of the stick"
[00:47.06]But Katie''''s young and man she just don''''t care
[00:50.71]She''''d follow Tommy anywhere
[00:53.64]She''''s in love with the boy
[00:56.64]She''''s in love with the boy
[01:00.73]She''''s in love with the boy
[01:05.54]And even if they have to run away
[01:08.86]She''''s gonna marry that boy someday
[01:13.14]
[01:19.52]Katie and Tommy at the drive-in movie
[01:23.07]Parked in the very last row
[01:27.22]They''''re too busy holding on to one another
[01:31.00]To even care about the show
[01:34.79]But later on outside the Tastee Freeze
[01:38.65]Tommy slips something on her hand
[01:42.01]He says, "my high school ring will have to do
[01:46.12]Till I can buy a wedding band"

[01:49.62]Her daddy says, "he isn''''t worth a lick
[01:53.73]When it came to brains, he got the short end of the stick"
[01:57.59]But Katie''''s young and man she just don''''t care

[02:12.07]She''''s in love with the boy
[02:16.81]And even if they have to run away
[02:20.02]She''''s gonna marry that boy someday

[02:36.28]Her daddy''''s waiting up till half past twelve
[02:40.26]When they come sneaking up the walk
[02:43.70]He says, "young lady get on up to your room
[02:48.00]While me and junior have a talk"
[02:51.81]But Mama breaks in and says, "don''''t lose your temper
[02:55.65]It wasn''''t very long ago
[02:59.11]When you yourself was just a hay-seed plowboy
[03:03.48]Who didn''''t have a row to hoe"
[03:06.64]"My daddy said you weren''''t worth a lick
[03:10.42]When it came to brains, you had the short end of the stick
[03:14.75]But he was wrong and honey you are too
[03:18.27]Katie looks at Tommy like I still look at you"
[03:21.65]She''''s in love with the boy
[03:25.02]She''''s in love with the boy
[03:29.09]She''''s in love with the boy
[03:32.77]What''''s meant to be will always find a way
[03:36.90]She''''s in love with the boy
[03:40.69]She''''s in love with the boy
[03:44.66]She''''s in love with the boy
