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

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 want to 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
