about

Released on the band's first full-length album, Pitchin’ Woo!

In third grade, I gave my boyfriend Timmy a check made out for $100.00 from my parents checkbook with the memo "Boyfriend paycheck" -- then had my heart broken when his dad showed up at my house the next day to return the check, uncashed.

lyrics

OH BOY

Well the first time I saw you from across the room
My head started spinnin' and my heart went zoom
My knees were shakin' and my legs went weak
I felt a little blush climbin' up my cheeks

Oh boy, look what you've done
Oh boy, bet we could have us some fun
Oh boy let me show you what a good, good girl I am

Well the next time I saw you I was feeling shy
You were with some other gal but you caught my eye
Mmmm pretty boy I wasn't impressed
But all I could think was "Baby tear off my dress!"

Oh boy, look what you've done
Oh boy, bet we could have us some fun
Oh boy let me show you what a good, good girl I am

Later that night I saw you again
I asked about that gal you said "We're just friends"
I said if you'd be mine I'd forget the rest
I wanna put your kissin' to the test

Oh boy, look what you've done
Oh boy, bet we could have us some fun
Oh boy let me show you what a good, good girl I am

So we hopped in your car I was feeling frisky
We stopped for gas and a fifth of whiskey
You said "Aw gal, I think you're mighty sweet"
I could be sweeter in your backseat

Oh boy, look what you've done
Oh boy, bet we could have us some fun
Oh boy let me show you what a good, good girl I am
Oh boy let me show you what a good, bad girl I am
