"Oughta Know Better" lyrics

"Oughta Know Better"

Bobby came over in a farmer Toyota that was older than our baptist church
I Climbed in the cab after sneaking out the back
Hopin' daddy and the hounds ain't heard
Ooh, oughta know better

We got a little gas and a couple 6 packs of Pabst with his fake ID
The guy at the counter played ball with my brother
I prayed he wouldn't recognize me
Ooh, oughta know better

I wasn't thinking anything could go wrong
Come to think I wasn't thinking at all

Cause when he called me baby
With that wild look in his eyes
I wanted that night to last forever
I wasn't listening to the angel on my right
Saying girl, you oughta know better

We were rev it up rebels on the tail of the devil
When the pedal tripped the radar gun
The blue lights flashed and Bobby hit the gas
Laughing we were on the run
Ooh, oughta know better

Naw, I'd never been in trouble before
But I told Bobby, keep your foot on the floor

Cause when he called me baby
With that wild look in his eyes
I wanted that night to last forever
I wasn't listening to the angel on my right
Saying girl, you oughta know better

Bobby knew a back road when he got me back home
He kissed me in the pale moonlight
Crawling in my window, mama cut the light on
Daddy gonna tan my hide
Ooh, oughta know better
He said ooh... ya oughta know better...

Cause when he called me baby
With that wild look in his eyes
I wanted that night to last forever
I wasn't listening to the angel on my right
Saying girl, you oughta know better
Saying girl, you oughta know better
Oh girl, you oughta know... better
