Barbara Sue Lyrics

Barbara Sue lyrics

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 that's where I'm spending all my time 



Her daddy Robert and her mama Ruth 

They had a daughter name of Barbara Sue 

And now she's eighteen and she knows the truth 

Nobody's gonna tell her what to do 



Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Barbara Sue 

Ca-can't you see my love is true? 

I want to ma-ma-ma-marry you 

Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Barbara Sue 



I'll take her riding on a Friday night 

Straight down the highway in the clear moonlight 

My Chevy's humming and 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 



Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Barbara Sue 

Ca-can't you see my love is true? 

I want to ma-ma-ma-marry you 

Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Barbara Sue 



Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Barbara Sue 

Ca-can't you see my love is true? 

I want to ma-ma-ma-marry you 

Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Barbara Sue 



Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Barbara Sue 



Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Barbara Sue
