"Rebecca Lynn" is a mid-tempo country ballad in which the narrator recalls a female named Rebecca Lynn, a "quiet girl with green eyes full of fire" with whom he fell in love in second grade. The first verse and chorus follow them through elementary school as they play together. In the second verse, they learn in high school "what it really means to be in love" and eventually get engaged after the prom. By the third verse, the two have married and had a child named Laura Jean together as well.
At Music Fest '96, White sang the song to Rebecca Lynn Rushing, a fan of his who was then six years old. The song also won White the TNN/Music City News award for Single of the Year.
