She was sitting crossed legged on a hood of a ford
Filing down her nails with a emery board
Talking to her friends about people they knew 
And a lot the things that young girls do

When she said you see that guy in the baseball cap
I'd like to spend some time with a boy like that
Betty said I seen him at the hardware store
I think his name is Billy, but I'm not sure

And as they talked a little while he passed by
She smiled at him he just said "hi"
He was thinking to him self as he walked away
Man I'd like to find a girl like her someday

[Chorus]
Young love, strong love, true love 
It's a new love
Their gonna make it through the hard times
Walk those lines
yeah these ties will bind
Young love

We'll she just couldn't stop her self from thinking about him
And at a store downtown she saw him again
She had both hands full
He held open the door

Said my name is Billy
I've seen you before
Can I help you with these 
Can I give you a ride

Can I take you out on a Saturday night
She didn't have to say what she was feeling inside
He could see the answer shining in her eyes

[Chorus]

Well from that day on
You couldn't keep them apart
They were side by side, heart to heart
Momma cried as Billy slipped the ring on her hand
And when the baby was born she was crying again

Well he worked real hard and put some money down
On a little old house at the edge of town
And that night as he held her he couldn't believe
That god had made a girl that he'd never ever leave

[Chorus]

She was sitting crossed legged on the hood of a ford
Filing down her nails with an emery board
