"She's In Love with The Boy" is the debut single of American country music artist Trisha Yearwood. The song reached No. 1 on the "Billboard" U.S. Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart in 1991.

The song was originally written for and offered to superstar Kenny Rogers who (even though he liked the song) turned it down saying he didn't feel comfortable singing it as it didn't match his style (or as Rogers later put it himself in an interview with British Country music magazine "Country Music International", "I didn't feel comfortable singing about chickens pecking the ground").Fact|date=April 2007

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 the father objects to his daughters choice of fiance ("Her Daddy say's 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 father confronting them when Tommy brings Katie home from a date after midnight; however, Katie's mother comes to her daughter's defense:::"Mama breaks in, says "Don't lose your temper, it wasn't very long ago" ::"When you yourself was just a hayseed plowboy, who didn't have a row to hoe." ::"My daddy said you wasn't worth a lick, when it came to brains you got the short end of the stick"::"But he was wrong, and honey, you are too, Katie looks at Tommy like I still look at you."
