my dear old mother told me
oh please beware of things
that promise untold profit
or lots of fun and games
watch out for city women
they’ll bring you down my son
they’ll take you to the gutter
they’ll steal you blind and run
oh please don’t worry
my dear dear old mother don’t worry
your son’s heart is pure
yes it’s snow white and pure
please don’t worry
her tone was confidential
she said oh please beware
of things that promise kicks
anytime and anywhere
just one last tender warnin’
they’re low those gamblin’ men
they hide in every shadow
and wait for you my friend
oh please don’t worry
my dear dear old mother don’t worry
your son’s heart is pure
yes it’s snow white and pure
please don’t worry
he lied about the women
about the gamblin’ too
there’s fun in the big city
and mom there’s room for you
oh please don’t worry
my dear dear old mother don’t worry
your son’s heart is pure
yes it’s snow white and pure
please don’t worry
