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
when evening rolls around
and it’s time to go to town
where do you go
to rock and roll
the old folks say
that ya gotta end your date by ten
if you’re out on a date
and you bring it home late it’s a sin
there just ain’t no excusin’
you know you’re gonna lose and never win
i’ll say it again
and 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
when evening rolls around
and it’s time to go to town
where do you go
to rock and roll
you pull into a drivein
and find a place to park
you hop into the backseat
where you know it’s nice and dark
you’re just about to movein
thinkin’ it’s a breeze
there’s a light in your eyes
and then a guy says
out of the car longhair
louie you’re comin’ with me
the local police
and 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
when evening rolls around
and it’s time to go to town
where do you go
to rock and roll
where do you go
to rock and roll
where do you go
to rock and roll
