Song lyrics downloaded from: https://www.albumsongandlyrics.com ------------------------------------------ Dierks Bentley - What was i thinkin? ------------------------------------------ Well, 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 thinkin'? She snuck out one night an' met me by the front gate, Her Daddy came out a-wavin' that twelve guage We tore out the drive, he peppered my tailgate. What was I thinkin'? Oh, I knew there'd be hell to pay. But that crossed my mind a little too late. 'Cause I was thinkin' 'bout a little white tank top, Sittin' right there in the middle by me. An' I was thinkin' 'bout a long kiss, Man, just gotta get goin', where the night might lead. I know what I was feelin', But what was I thinkin'? What was I thinkin'? By the County line, the cops were nippin' on our heels, Pulled off the road an' kicked it in four-wheel. Shut off the lights an' tore through a cornfield. What was I thinkin'? At the other side, she was hollerin': "Faster." Took a dirt road, had the radio blastin'. Hit the honky-tonk for a little close dancin'. What was I thinkin'? Oh, I knew there'd be hell to pay. But that crossed my mind a little too late. 'Cause I was thinkin' 'bout a little white tank top, Sittin' right there in the middle by me. An' I was thinkin' 'bout a long kiss, Man, just gotta get goin', where the night might lead. I know what I was feelin', But what was I thinkin'? What was I thinkin'? 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 slidin' like Bo Duke. What was I thinkin'? I finally got her home at a half past two, later. Daddy's in a long chair sittin' on the driveway, Put it in park as he started my way. What was I thinkin'? Oh, what was I thinkin'? Oh, what was I thinkin'? Then she gave a "Come an' get me grin." An' like a bullet, we were gone again. 'Cause I was thinkin' 'bout a little white tank top, Sittin' right there in the middle by me. An' I was thinkin' 'bout a long kiss, Man, just gotta get goin' where the night might lead. I know what I was feelin', But what was I thinkin'? What was I thinkin'? I know what I was feelin', but what was I thinkin'? (Back to Top)
