Get your party gown
Get your pigtail down
Get your heart beatin´ baby
Got my timin´ right
Got my act all tight
It´s gotta be tonight my little
Schoolbabe
Your mama 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 nosing around
Tie your Mother down
Tie your Mother down
Give me all your love tonight
You´re such a dirty louse
Go get outta my house
That´s all I ever get from your...your
Family ties, in fact I don´t think I ever heard
A single little civil word
from those guys
But you know 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
Grousin´ an´ snipin´
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 til I die
Why can´t they understand I´m just a
Peace lovin´ guy
Tie your Mother down
Tie your Mother down. . .etc etc. . .
