Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I got my first motorcycle when I turned sixteen
I remember my mamma raising cane with me
She said, "Son tell me why you want to ride that thing"
She didn't know about the blonde at the Dairy Queen
[Verse 2]
I got my own reasons why I do what I do
I like to ride motorcycles and she likes it too
I like to ride motorcycles and she likes it too
[Verse 3]
I always wore my hair just a little too long
Daddy didn't like it and he made no bones
If I'd have gotten it cut like he wanted me to
She wouldn't have had nothing left to run her fingers through
[Verse 4]
I got my own reasons why I do what I do
I like to wear my hair long and she likes it too
I like to wear my hair long and she likes it too
[Verse 5]
I remember riding around with my buddies back home
Listening to some country on the radio
When they tried to change the station to some Rock 'n' Roll
I'd turn the Opry up just as loud as it'd go
[Verse 6]
I got my own reasons why I do what I do
I like Country music, she likes it too
I like Country music, she likes it too
[Verse 7]
Now I got a big Harley and my hair is still long
And I'm still listening to a Country song
[Verse 8]
I got my own reasons why I do what I do
I know what I like, she likes it too
I know what I like, she likes it too
Yeah, I know what I like, she likes it too
