Oak Ridge Boys - Barbara Sue lyrics

I heard about her from a friend of mine

He said she lives across the county line

The sweetest pick 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 name of Barbara Sue

And now she's eighteen and she knows the truth

Nobody's gonna tell her what to do

Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Barbara Sue

Ca-can't you see my love is true?

I want to ma-ma-ma-marry you

Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Barbara 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

Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Barbara Sue

Ca-can't you see my love is true?

I want to ma-ma-ma-marry you

Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Barbara Sue

Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Barbara Sue

Ca-can't you see my love is true?

I want to ma-ma-ma-marry you

Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Barbara Sue

Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Barbara Sue

Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Barbara Sue
