"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.
