I'm just a plain ole country kid, and I like to do what's right
But just like any other boy, I like to hold em' 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
N' I say, "you better not do that", n' she said "why?", n' I said
"cause, you just better not do that"
When was in a country school, I always had a girl
That'd laugh and giggle all so cute, and put me in a whirl
And every day at recess time, she'd follow me outside
I'd scratch my head and wonder, are they ever satisfied
N' I’d say "honey, you better not do that", n' she'd say "why",
"cause you just better not do that"
When I was a little older, I went to a country dance
I went to have a little fun, wasn't thinkin' bout romance
But the dim lights just lured em' on and they'd snuggle up to me
I knew that I wouldn't last too long, cause I’m human, you see
I'd say "baby, you better not do that", n' she'd say "why" n' I say
"cause, you just better not do that"
Now that's the way my life has been, ain’t it a crying shame
How much longer can I last, if I can't play in the games
Sometimes I don't know who I am, don't they know what they're doing
I'm afraid in days to come, girls will be my ruin
Now I say, "honey, you better not do that" n' she'll say "why", n'
I'll say well, "you just better not do that', n' she'll still say
"why", n' I’ll say oh well oh oh, it's alright to do that
