[edit] Content
The song was picked up by Yearwood for her 1991 debut album. It is a story song and tells the tale of a teenage couple in love, named as Katie and Tommy. However, Katie's dad objects to his daughter's choice of fiancé ("Her Daddy says he ain't worth a lick, when it comes to brains he got the short end of the stick"). The song concludes with Katie's dad confronting them when Tommy brings Katie home from a date after midnight; however, Katie's mom comes to her daughter's defense. The song was written by Jon Ims.[2]
