I heard about her from a friend of mine
He said she lives across the county line
The sweetest pick that ever grew on the vine
And now thats where Im spending all my time
Her daddy Robert and her mama Ruth
They had a daughter name of Bobbie Sue
And now shes eighteen and she knows the truth
Nobodys gonna tell her what to do
Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Bobbie Sue
Ca-cant you see my love is true?
I want to ma-ma-ma-ma-marry you
Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Bobbie Sue
Instrumental
Ill take her riding on a Friday night
Straight down the highway in the clear moonlight
My Chevys humming as she holds me tight
Well find a preacher and well do it right
Her daddy told her that shed have to wait
Her mama said, Dont make a big mistake
But well keep driving till were out of state
And when they find us itll be too late
Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Bobbie Sue
Ca-cant you see my love is true?
I want to ma-ma-ma-ma-marry you
Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Bobbie Sue
Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Bobbie Sue
Ca-cant you see my love is true?
I want to ma-ma-ma-ma-marry you
