I'm just a plain ol' country kid and I like to do what's right

Just like any other boy I like to hold 'em tight

Sometimes they got resistence put no matter how I tried

Then a cute little gal just looks at me with a gleam in her eye

And I'll say you better not do that now and she'll say why

And I'll say cause you just better not do that

When I was in a country school I always had a girl

They'd laugh and giggle awful cute and put me in a whirl

And everyday at recess time they followed me outside

I'd scratch my head and wonder how they're ever satified

And I'd say honey you better not do that now and she'd say why

And I'll say cause you just better not do that

[ steel ]

Now when I was a little older I went to the country dance

I went to have a little fun I was a thinkin' bout romance

But the dim lights just lured them on and they'd snuggle up to me

I knew I couldn't last too long I'm new man on scene

And I'd say baby you better not do that now and she'd say why

And I'd say cause you just better not do that

Well that's the way my life has been ain't it a cryin' shame

How much longer can I last if I keep playin' her game

Sometimes I don't know who I am don't pay on what they're doin'

I'm afraid in years to come that girls will be my ruin

And I'll say ah honey you better not do that now and she'll say why

And I'll say cause you just better not do that now and she'll say why Goerge

And I'll say ah well uhm ah ha ha ha okay it's alright if you do that
