I hear your mama don't dance, your daddy don't rock and roll.

I hear your mama don't dance, your daddy don't rock and roll.

Oh, when evening rolls around, ain't no time to tell where you're goin'.

I hear the old folks say that you gotta eat, don't take no chance.

Well, if you're out on the beat and you're bringin' on the bass, it's a sin.

Oh, that just ain't no excuse, you know you're gonna lose and never win.

I'll say it again, it's all because your mama don't dance and your daddy don't rock and roll.

Your mama don't dance and your daddy don't rock and roll.

Oh, when evening rolls around, ain't no time to tell where you're goin'.

You pull into a job and you find a place to park.

Hop into the back seat, you know it's nice and dark.

You're just about to move and you'll think you're in the breeze.

There's a light in your eye and then a guy says,

Get out of the car, long -haired.

Ooh -wee, come on with me.

Hold on for me.

It's all because your mama don't dance and your daddy don't rock and roll.

Oh, your mama don't dance and your daddy don't rock and roll.

Oh, when evening rolls around, ain't no time to tell where you're goin'.

Rock and roll.

Where do you go?

Rock and roll.

Where do you go?

Rock and roll.

Look out!
