I heard about her from a friend of mine. He said she lived across the county line.
The sweetest grape 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 named Bobby Sue.
And now she's eighteen and she knows the truth. Nobody's gonna tell her what she knew.
B-B-B-Bobby Sue, can't you see my love is true? I want to m-m-m-marry you. B-B-B-B-Bobby 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.
B-B-B-Bobby Sue, can't you see my love is true? I want to m-m-m-marry you. B-B-B-B-Bobby Sue.
B-B-B-B-Bobby Sue.
B-B-B-B-Bobby Sue.
B-B-B-Bobby Sue.
