[Verse 1]
I was twenty and she was eighteen
We were just about as wild as we were green in the ways of the world
Well, she picked me up in that red ragtop
We were free of the folks and hidin' from the cops
On a summer night, runnin' all the red lights
We parked way out in a clearing in a grove
And the night was as hot as a coal burnin' stove
We were cooking with gas
Knew it had to last
[Chorus]
In the back of that red ragtop
She said, "Please, don't stop"
[Verse 2]
Well, the very first time her mother met me
Her green-eyed girl had been a mother to be
For two weeks (Ooh)
I was out of a job and she was in school
And life was fast and the world was cruel
We were young and wild (Ooh)
We decided not to have a child
So we did what we did and we tried to forget
And we swore up and down, there would be no regrets
In the morning light
But on the way home that night
I was twenty and she was eighteen
We were just about as wild as we were green in the ways of the world
Well, she picked me up in that red ragtop
We were free of the folks and hidin' from the cops
On a summer night, runnin' all the red lights
We parked way out in a clearing in a grove
And the night was as hot as a coal burnin' stove
We were cooking with gas
Knew it had to last
[Chorus]
In the back of that red ragtop
She said, "Please, don't stop"
[Verse 2]
Well, the very first time her mother met me
Her green-eyed girl had been a mother to be
For two weeks (Ooh)
I was out of a job and she was in school
And life was fast and the world was cruel
We were young and wild (Ooh)
We decided not to have a child
So we did what we did and we tried to forget
And we swore up and down, there would be no regrets
In the morning light
But on the way home that night
