"She's In Love With The Boy"
Written By Jon Ims
Katy's sitting on the old front porch
Watching the chickens peck the ground.
There ain't a whole lot going on tonight
In this one horse town.
Over yonder, coming up the road
In a beat-up Chevy truck
Her boyfriend Tommy, he's laying on the horn
Splashing through the mud and the muck
Her daddy said, He ain't worth a lick
When it came to brains, he got the short end of the stick
But Katy's young and man she just don't care
She'd follow Tommy anywhere
She's in love with the boy.
She's in Glove 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.
Katy and Tommy at the drive-in movie
Park in the very last row
They're too busy holding on to one another
To give a hoot about the show.
(To give a damn about the show. - Christine Albert)
(To even care about the show. - Trisha Yearwood)
But later on outside the Tastee Freeze,
Tommy slips something on her hand
He says My high school ring will have to do
Till I can buy a wedding band.
{Chorus
Her daddy's waiting up till half past twelve
When they come sneaking up the walk
He says, young lady get on up to your room
While me and junior have a talk
But momma breaks in and says don't lose your temper
It wasn't very long ago
When you yourself was just a hay-seed ploughboy
Who didn't have a row to hoe.
My daddy said you wasn't worth a lick
When it came to brains, you had the short end of the stick
But he was wrong and honey you are too.
Katy looks at Tommy, the way I still look at you.
She's in love with the boy.
She's in Glove with the boy.
She's in love with the boy.
And what was meant to be will always find a way
She's gonna marry that boy someday.
She's in love with the boy.
She's in love with the boy.
{This is from Jon Ims original recording. Trisha Yearwood adapted
her version from Christine Albert's version of this song and
changed a few words. Alternate lines are in ()'s
Chirstine does this song in the key of E, I don't know about
Trisha Yearwoods version.}
