When you grow up,
live like a good boy oughta.
And your mama takes a shot in the footbath, son.
Something different,
all the girls that seem to like you.
Cuz you're handsome,
like to talk, and a whole lot of fun.
But now your girl is gone,
I'm missing,
and your house is got an empty bed.
The folks are worried about the wedding,
they won't listen to a word you said.
We're 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 if the new one lands,
if you tip them and they make a cut.
Do it,
take your mama out all night,
so she'll have no doubt that we're doing all the best
we can.
Gonna do it,
take your mama out all night,
you can stay up late cuz baby, you're a full
grown man.
It's a struggle living like a good boy oughta.
In the summer,
watching all the girls pass by.
When your mama heard the way that you'd been talking,
I tried to tell you that all she wanna do is cry.
Now we end up taking the long way home,
looking over dress,
wearing buckets of stale cologne.
It's so hard to see streets on a country road when your glasses and
the garbage and your cotton nails just been towed.
We're gonna take your mama out all night, yeah,
