Your Mama Don't Dance

Your mama don't dance and your daddy don't

Rock and roll

Your mama don't dance and your daddy don't

Rock and roll

But when evening comes around and it's time to

Hit the town

Where do you go, you gotta rock it

The old folks say that ya gotta end your date

By ten

But if you're out on a date don't you

Bring her home late 'cause it's a sin

You know there's no excuse

You know you're gonna lose you never win

I'll say it again

And it's all because your mama don't dance

And your daddy don't rock and roll

Your mama don't dance and your daddy don't

Rock and roll

When evenin' rolls around and it's time to

Hit the town

Where do you go, to rock it, rock it

(lead)

Everyone gather round let me tell you all

About it

You see I pulled into a drive-in and

I found a place to park

We hopped into the backseat where it's

Always nice and dark

I'm just about to move thinking to myself Mmm

Bret this is a breeze

Then there's a light in my eye and a guy says

Out of the car long hair

Oowee, you're coming with me

Said the local police

And it's all because your mama don't dance

And your daddy don't rock and roll

Your mama don't dance and your daddy don't

Rock and roll

When evenin' rolls around and it's time to

Hit the town

Where do you go, play me a little C.C.

Your mama don't dance and your daddy don't

Rock and roll

Your mama don't dance and your daddy don't

Rock and roll

They just ain't cool and they ain't about to start

Your mama don't dance and you daddy don't rock

Your mama don't dance, no

She just don't dance, no

You mama don't dance

And you daddy don't rock and roll, oww no
