Rebecca Lynn

Lyrics

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 pass notes and after school we play Singin' Ring around the rosie Pocket full of dreams and posies Patty cake A baker's man Tag, you're it Kick the can And I think I hear my mama calling Gotta go Man, I loved her so High school days Me and Becky learning What it really means to be in love Give and take Holding back for heaven's sake And fightin' for a week Then 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 A 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 Your love grows Laura Jean was born in Tennessee 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 A baker's man Tag, you're it Kick the can And I think I hear your mama calling Gotta go Oh, man, I love you so
