Shop Around lyrics

When I became of age, my mother called me to her side,

She said, “Son, you're growing up now, pretty soon you'll take a bride.”

And then she said, “Just because you’ve become a young man now,

There’s still somethings that you don't understand now,

Before you ask some girl for her hand now

Keep your freedom for as long as you can now.”

My mama told me, “You better shop around, (Shop, shop)

Oh yeah, you better shop around.” (Shop, shop around)

Ah, there’s somethings that I want you to know now

Just as sure as the wind’s gonna blow now

The women come and the women gonna go now

Before you tell ’em that you love em so now.

My mama told me, “You better shop around, (Shop, shop)

Oh yeah, you better shop around.” (Shop, shop around)

“Try to get yourself a bargain, son

Don’t be sold on the very first one

Pretty girls come a dime a dozen,

Try to find one who’s gonna give you true lovin’

Before you take a girl and say I do, now,

Make sure she’s in love with-a you now.”

My mama told me, “You better shop around.”

“Ooh yeah, try to get yourself a bargain son

Don’t be sold on the very first one

Pretty girls come a dime a dozen,

Try to find one who’s gonna give you true lovin'.

Before you take a girl and say I do, now,

Make sure she’s in love with-a you now.

Make sure that her love is true now.

I hate to see you feelin’ sad and blue now.”

My mama told me, “You better shop around (Shop, shop).”

“Don’t let the first one get you

Oh no, ’cause I don't want to see her with you

Uh huh, before you let her hold you tight, ah yeah make sure she's alright

Uh huh, before you let her take your hand, my son

Understand my son, be a man my son, I know you can my son, I love you.”
