DOES YOUR MOTHER KNOW
(Benny Andersson / Bjoern Ulvaeus 1979)
Abba
recorded 1979
You're so hot, teasin' me,
So you're blue but I can't take a chance on a chick like you,
That's somethin' I couldn't do!
There's that look in your eyes,
I can read in your face that your feelin's are drivin' you wild,
Ah, but girl you're only a child!
Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it's funny,
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you baby,
Flirt a little maybe,
Does your mother know that you're out?
Take it easy, (take it easy)
Better slow down girl,
That's no way to go,
Does your mother know?
Take it easy, (take it easy)
Try to cool it girl,
Take it nice and slow,
Does your mother know?
I can see what you want,
But you seem pretty young to be searchin' for that kind o' fun,
So maybe I'm not the one!
Now you're so cute, I like your style,
And I know what you mean when you give me a flash o' that smile, (smile)
But girl you're only a child!
Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it's funny,
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you baby,
Flirt a little maybe,
Does your mother know that you're out?
Take it easy, (take it easy)
Better slow down girl,
That's no way to go,
Does your mother know?
Take it easy, (take it easy)
Try to cool it girl,
Take it nice and slow,
Does your mother know?
Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it's funny,
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you baby,
Flirt a little maybe,
Does your mother know that you're out?
Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it's funny,
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you baby,
Flirt a little maybe,
Does your mother know that you're out?
Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it's funny,
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you baby,
Flirt a little maybe...
