Rebecca Lynn
grew up in Carolina
Half a mile from
Tucker Cherry's Farm
A quiet girl
with green eyes full of fire
Her daddy's pride and
all her mama's charm
Rebecca Lynn
became my heart's desire
Long about the start of
second grade
Mrs. Rosenbloom
let me sit beside her
So we passed notes
And after school we played
Singin'
Ring around the rosie
Pocket full of
dreams and posies
Patty cake and baker's man
Tag you're it
Kick the can
And I think I hear my
mama callin'
Gotta go
Man I loved her so
High school days
Me and Becky learnin'
What it really means to
be in love
Give and take
Holdin' back for Heaven's sake
And fightin' for a week and
makin' up
I said please
Becky won't you marry me
Prom night in my car out
by the curb
She was so surprised
First she laughed
And then she cried
And somewhere in my heart
I'm sure I heard
Ring around the rosie
Pocket full of
dreams and posies
Patty cake and baker's man
Tag you're it
Kick the can
Mama flashed the porch light
for me
Gotta go
Man I loved her so
When love is wrong it dies and
that's the way it goes
But when it's right
You know love grows
Laura Jean
was born in Tennessee
Now that's a common little
miracle I know
But for me and Becky Lynn
She's the dream that
started when
We fell in love so many
years ago
Singin'
Ring around the rosie
Pocket full of
dreams and posies
Patty cake and baker's man
Tag you're it
Kick the can
And I think I hear your
mama callin'
Gotta go
Man I love her so
