Key of G 
 
G 
I heard about her from a friend of mine 
                              C 
He said she lived across the county line 
                              D 
The sweetest grape that ever grew on the vine 
                                  G 
And now that's where I'm spending all my time 
G                      
Her daddy Robert and her mama Ruth 
                              C 
They had a daughter named her Bobbie Sue 
                         D 
And now she's 18 and she knows the truth 
                         G 
Nobody's gonna tell her what to do

                           G 
I'll take her riding on a Friday night 
                                 C 
Straight down the highway in the clear moonlight 
                           D 
My Chevy's humming and she holds me tight 
                                G 
We'll find a preacher and we'll do it right 
         G                      
Her daddy told her that she'd have to wait 
                           C 
Her mama said don't make a big mistake 
                                  D 
But we'll keep driving til' we're out of reach  
                           G 
And when they find us it'll be too late
