You Must Be Good

Said you must be good

So that you can sleep at night

And you must be good

So that your mamma can hold you tight

And you can't be bad, can't be bad

Or the devil come lick you

Whoah you must be good, you must be good

No, don't let him trick you

Oh every day, tempted by temptation

And every night by another situation

But you must be wise, be wise and recognise

Or the devil come pull you down in a girlish disguise

Said you must be good

So that you can sleep at night

And you must be good

So that your mamma can hold you tight

And you can't be bad, can't be bad

Or the devil come lick you

Whoah you must be good, you must be good

No, don't let him trick you

Avarice and envy, lord these sins are deadly

Greed and vanity now, they hurt a good man plenty

But you must take care now, and beware in your youthful

insobriety

Your cup may be full now, but in the end it will be

empty.

Said you must be good

So that you can sleep at night

And you must be good

So that your mamma can hold you tight

And you can't be bad, can't be bad

Or the devil come lick you

Whoah you must be good, you must be good

No, don't let him trick you

I said you must be good, you must be good

Don't let him trick you

I said you must be good, you must be good

You must be good...
