Just a girl born in Dixie
Washed in the blood
And raised on the banks of the Mississippi mudShe always had a thing about fallin′ in love with a bad boy
Yea, they could see it all comin'
But her daddy never dreamed she′d grow up that fast
You know what I mean
The way a girl gets when she turns 17
Kinda crazy
She's a rebel child and a preacher's daughter
She was baptized in dirty water
Her mama cried the first time they caught her with me
They knew they couldn′t stop her
She holds tight to me and the Bible
On the back seat of my motorcycle
Left her daddy standin′ there preachin' to the choir
You see, God love her
Oh, me and God love her
She kissed her mama goodbye
Said I′ll be sure 'n phone ya
She called her from a truck stop in Tucson, Arizona
With amazing grace, we made California line
And then my gypsy life started takin′ its toll
And the fast lane got empty and out of control
And just like an angel she saved my soul
From the devil
Yeah, she's a rebel child and a preacher′s daughter
She was baptized in dirty water
Her mama cried the first time they caught her with me
They knew they couldn't stop her
She holds tight to me and the Bible
On the back seat of my motorcycle
Left her daddy standin' there preachin′ to the choir
You see, God love her
Oh, me and God love her
Now she holds tight to me and the Bible
On the back seat of my motorcycle
Left her daddy standin′ there preachin' to the choir
You see, God love her
Oh, me and God love her
God love her
Me and God love her
