Life's Great Sin

It was on an old dirt road, back in the country 
That I first tasted of life’s great sin 
In the backseat of that old sedan 
That I borrowed from one of my kin 
I thought I knew everything 
But she taught me a lot more 
A rookie she laughingly called me 
As she blew cigarette smoke out the door

She probably would say I've grown up quite a lot since those early days.
