Like to take you to the movies on a Saturday night
But your mama won't let me
Steal you away
for a Sunday drive
But your mama won't let me
She's one step ahead of me every
time
When I get too close she draws that line
Thinks I'm trouble but I'm not that
kind
Your mama won't let me make you mine
I wanna tear you away from those apron
strings
But your mama won't let me
Buy you dinner and a diamond ring
But your mama won't
let me
She's one step ahead of me every time
When I get too close she draws that
line
Thinks I'm trouble but I'm not that kind
Your mama won't let me make you
mine
I got nothin' but good intentions
Somehow I got to change her mind
Find a way
to break down her defenses
Gotta have you or I'm gonna die tryin'
I'd like to talk to
your daddy about man-to-man
But your mama won't let me
If anybody could I know he'd
understand
But your mama won't let me
She's one step ahead of me every time
When I
get too close she draws that line
Thinks I'm trouble but I'm not that kind
Your mama won't
let me make you mine
You know your mama won't let me make you mine
