Just because you've become a young woman, now
|
There's still some things that you don't understand, now
|
Before you ask some guy for his hand, now
|
You keep your freedom for as long as you can, now
|
My mama told me
|
You better shop around, aah-ha-ha
|
You better shop around
|
|
There's some things that I want you to know, now
|
Just as sure as the wind's gonna blow, now
|
The men'll come and the men are gonna go, now
|
Before you tell 'em that you love 'em so, now
|
My mama told me
|
You better shop around, aah-ha-ha
|
You better shop around
|
|
Try to get yourself a bargain, girl
|
Don't be sold on the very first one
|
Good-looking guys come a dime a dozen
|
Try to find you one who's gonna give you true lovin'
|
|
Before you take a man and say I do, now
|
Make sure he's in love with you, now
|
Make sure that his love is true, now
|
I hate to see you feeling sad and blue, now
|
My mama told me
|
You better shop around, aah-ha-ha
|
You better shop around
|
