What Was I Thinkin' (Remastered Version)

[Verse 1]

Becky was a beauty from south Alabama

Her daddy had a heart like a 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 gauge

We tore out the drive he peppered my tailgate

What was I thinking?

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, I knew there'd be hell to pay

But that crossed my mind a little too late

Cause I was

[Chorus]

Thinking about a little white tank top sitting right

There in the middle by me

I was thinking about a long kiss man just got to get

Going where the night might lead

I know what I was feeling

But what was I thinking... what was I thinking

[Verse 2]

By the county line the cops were nipping on our heels

Pulled off the road and kicked it in four-wheel

Shut off the lights and tore through the corn field

What was I thinking?

Out the other side she was hollering faster

Took a dirt road and had the radio blasting

Hit the honky tonk for a little close dancing

What was I thinking?

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, I knew there'd be hell to pay

But that crossed my mind a little too late

Cause I was

[Chorus]

Thinking about a little white tank top sitting right

There in the middle by me

I was thinking about a long kiss man just got to get

Going where the night might lead

I know what I was feeling

But what was I thinking... what was I thinking

[Verse 3]

When a mountain of a man with a "born to kill" tattoo

Tried to cut in I knocked out his front tooth

We ran outside hood-sliding like Bo Duke

What was I thinking?

I finally got her home at a half past too late

Her daddy's in a lawn chair sitting on 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

Then she gave a come-and-get-me grin

And like a bullet we were gone again... cause I was

[Chorus]

Thinking about a little white tank top sitting right

There in the middle by me

I was thinking about a long kiss man just got to get

Going where the night might lead

I know what I was feeling

But what was I thinking... what was I thinking
