I was one or two just lying in my crib
Shaking that rattle like I always did
Susie strolled in that little girl next door
Next thing you know we were rolling on the floor
Mama came a runnin' to her little pride and joy
Said bless this little heart he's an excitable boyHigh school redneck rebel to the bone
Running eighty miles an hour in a thirty mile zone
Steal a little kiss- Skip a little school
Break another heart bend another rule
Cop tells the principal he's only making noise
Cut the kid some slack he's an excitable boy[Chorus]
I've been a renegade
Since the day I was born
I get a little carried away
Never meant to do nobody no harm
I gotta rock it, I can't stop it
I ain't about to changeParking with my darling fogging up the glass
Slipping 'cross the truck seat trying to make a pass
My baby said stop we gotta take it slow
But you know me I'm always raring to go
It's the way I am I don't have no choice
What can I say i'm an excitable boy[Chorus]What can I say, I'm an excitable boy
What can I say, I'm an excitable boy
Ah you know I just can't help myself
It's just the way I am
