Take Your Mama Lyrics

Take Your Mama lyrics

When you grow up 

Livin' like a good boy oughta 

And your mama 

Takes a shine to her best son 

Something different 

All the girls they seem to like you 

Cause you're handsome 

Like to talk and a whole lot of fun 



But now your girl's gone a missin' 

And your house has got an empty bed 

The folks'll wonder 'bout the wedding 

They won't listen to a word you said 



[Chorus] 

Gonna take your mama out all night 

Yeah we'll show her what it's all about 

We'll get her jacked up on some cheap champagne 

We'll let the good times all roll out 

And if the music ain't good, well it's just too bad 

We're gonna sing along no matter what 

Because the dancers don't mind at the New Orleans 

If you tip 'em and they make a cut 



Do it 

Take your mama out all night 

So she'll have no doubt 

That we're doing oh the best we can 

We're gonna do it 

Take your mama out all night 

You can stay up late 

'cause baby you're a full grown man 



It's a struggle 

Livin' like a good boy oughta 

In the summer 

Watchin' all the girls pass by 

When your mama 

Heard the way that you'd been talking 

I tried to tell you 

That all she'd wanna do is cry 



Now we end up takin' the long way home 

Lookin' overdressed wearin' buckets of stale cologne 

It's so hard to see streets on a country road 

When your glasses in the garbage 

And your Continental's just got towed 



[Repeat Chorus x2]
