Oak Ridge Boys Lyrics

Album: Unknown

Bobbie Sue

I heard about her from a friend of mine 

 He said she lived across the county line 

 The sweetest grape that ever grew on the vine 

 And now that's where I'm spending all my time 

 Her Daddy, Robert and her Mama, Ruth 

 They had a daughter they named Bobbie Sue 

 And now she's eighteen and she knows the truth 

 Nobody's gonna tell her what to do

 

 Bob-Bob-Bob-Bob-Bobbie Sue 

 Can't, can't you see my love is true 

 I want to ma-ma-ma-ma-marry you 

 Bob-Bob-Bob-Bob-Bob-Bob-Bobbie Sue

 

 I'll take her driving on a Friday night 

 Straight down the highway in the clear moonlight 

 My Chevy's humming as she holds me tight 

 We'll find a preacher and we'll do it right 

 Her Daddy told her that she'd have to wait 

 Her Mama said don't make a big mistake, 

 But we'll keep driving till we're out of state 

 And when they find us it'll be too late.

 

 Bob-Bob-Bob-Bob-Bobbie Sue 

 Can't, can't you see my love is true 

 I want to ma-ma-ma-ma-marry you 

 Bob-Bob-Bob-Bob-Bob-Bob-Bobbie Sue
