Get your party gown and get your pigtail down And get your heart beatin' baby Got my timin' right I got my act all tight It's gotta be tonight My little school babe
Your momma says you don't And your daddy says you won't And I'm boilin' up inside Ain't no way I'm gonna lose out this time
Tie your mother down Tie your mother down Lock your daddy out of doors I don't need him nosin' around Tie your mother down Tie your mother down Give me all your love tonight
'You're such a dirty louse go get outa my house' That's all I ever get from your family ties In fact I don't think I ever heard A single little civil word from those guys I don't give a light I'm gonna make out all right I've got a sweetheart hand To put a stop to all that Snipin' and grousin'
Tie your mother down Tie your mother down Take your little brother swimmin' With a brick that's all right Tie your mother down Tie your mother down Or you ain't no friend of mine
Your momma and your daddy Gonna plague me till I die I can't understand it 'Cause I'm a peace lovin' guy Tie your mother down Tie your mother down Get that big big big big big big Daddy out of doors Tie your mother down yeah Tie your mother down Give me all your love tonight All your love tonight
