I'm just a plain old country kid
and I like to do what's right
but just like any other boy
I like to hold them tight
sometimes I got resistance
but no matter how I try
when a cute little gal just looks at me
with a gleam in her eye
and I say, you better not do that
and she said, why?
I said, cause you just better not do that
When I was in the country school I always had a girl
They'd laugh and giggle,
awful cute and put me in a whirl
And every day at recess time they'd follow me outside
I'd scratch my head and wonder are they ever satisfied
I'd say, honey you better not do that
I said, why?
I said, cause you just better not do that
When I was a little older I went to the country
dance I went to have a little fun I wasn't
thinking about romance But the dim lights just lured them on and
they'd snuggle up to me I knew I couldn't last too long cause I'm
human you see And I'd say,
baby you better not do that
And she'd say, why?
And I'd say, cause you just better not do that
Now that's the way my life has been Ain't it a cryin' shame?
How much longer can I last if I keep playin' a game?
Sometimes I don't know who I am Don't they know what they're doin'?
I'm afraid in years to come that girl will be my ruin
And I'll say,
now honey you better not do that And she'll say,
why?
And I'll say, well you just better not do that
And she'll say, why?
And I'll say, oh well,
oh it's alright if you do that
