Dierks Bentley What Was I Thinking Lyrics

What Was I Thinking Lyrics

Becky was a beauty from South Alabama



Her Daddy had a hard lock and nine pound hammer



Think He even did a little time in the slammer



What was I thinking?



She snuck out one night and met me by the front gate



Her daddy came out waving that twelve gage



We tore out the drive, he peppered my tailgate



What was I thinking?







Oh I knew there’d be Hell to pay,



But that crossed my mind a little too late!







Chorus



Cuz’ I was thinking ‘bout a little white tank top sitting right there in
the middle by me



I was thinking about a long kiss man just gotta get goin’ with a night like
me



Well I know what I was feeling But What was I thinking?



But What was I thinking?







What was I thinking?







By the county line the cops were nipping on our heels



Pulled off the road kicked it to 4 wheel



Shut off the lights, tore through a corn field



What was I thinking?



Out the other side she was hollerin’ “Faster!?



Took the third road had the radio blastin’



Hit the Honky Tonk for a little close dancin’ 



What was I thinking?







Oh I knew there’d be Hell to pay,



But that crossed my mind a little too late!







Chorus







When a mountain of a man with a “Born to Kill? tattoo 



tried to cut in I knocked out his front tooth



Ran outside hood sliding like Bullduke



What was I thinking?



I finally got her home half past too late



Her daddy’s in a lawn chair sittin’ in the driveway



Put it in park as he started my way,



What was I thinking?







Oh What was I thinking?



Oh What was I thinking?







And she gave a come and get me grin, 



And like a bullet we were gone again!







Chorus







What was I thinking?
