Shop Around - Single Version / Mono

When I became of age, my mother called me to her side
 She said, son, you're growing up now
 Pretty soon you'll take a bride
 And then she said, just because you've become a young man now
 There's still some things that you don't understand now
 Before you ask some girl for her hand now
 Keep your freedom for as long as you can now
 My mama told me, you better shop around (shop, shop)
 Oh yeah, you better shop around (shop, shop around)
 Ah, there's some things that I want you to know now
 Just as sure as the winds gonna blow now
 The women come and the women gonna go now
 Before you tell 'em that you love 'em so now
 My mama told me, you better shop around, (shop, shop)
 Oh yeah, you better shop around (shop, shop around)
 A-try to get yourself a bargain son
 Don't be sold on the very first one
 A-pretty girls come a dime a dozen
 A-try to find one who's gonna give you true lovin'
 Before you take a girl and say I do, now
 Make sure she's in love with-a you now
 My mama told me, you better shop around

 Make sure that her love is true now
 I hate to see you feelin' sad and blue now
 My mama told me, you better shop around (shop, shop)
 Don't let the first one get you
 Oh no 'cause I don't want to see her with you
 Uh huh, before you let her hold you tight
 Ah, yeah, make sure she's alright
 Before you let her take your hand, my son
 Understand my son, be a man my son
 I know you can my son, I love you (ah shop around)
