I've got to be good or mama will scold me
Yes, yes, yes
I asked her and this is what she told me
Yes, yes, yes
Mother, may I go out dancing?
"Yes, my darling daughter"
Mother, may I try romancing?
"Yes, my darling daughter"
What if there's a moon, mama, darling
And it's shining on the water?
Mother, must I keep on dancing?
"Yes, my darling daughter"
What if he'll propose, mama, darling
When the night is growing shorter?
Mother, what should be my answer?
"Yes, my darling daughter"
Oh, mama, oh, mama
Oh, mama, oh, mama
What if he should insist on one embrace?
Mama, how can I keep him in his place?
If his manner becomes a shade improper?
"Tell him your heart belongs to papa"
ย
Mother, will it be exciting?
Mother, do I look inviting?
If he holds me tight, mama, darling
And my knees just turn to water
Mother, must I keep on dancing?
What if he persists, mama, darling
Doing things he hadn't oughter?
Mother, what should be my answer?
