Intro: G F Am G

[G]When you grow up livin' like a good boy [F]oughta

And your [C]mama takes a shine to her best [G]son

Something different all the girls they seem to [F]like it

Cause you're [C]handsome, like to talk, and a whole lot of [G]fun

[Am]But now your girl has gone a missin', and your house has got an empty [G]bed

[Am]The folks'll wonder 'bout the wedding, they won't listen to a word you [G]said

Chorus

We’re [G]gonna take your mama out all night

Yeah we'll [F]show her what it's all about

We'll get her [C]jacked up on some cheap champagne

We'll let the [G]good times all roll out

And if the music ain't good, well it's just too bad

We're gonna [F]sing along no matter what

Because the [C]dancers don't mind at the New Orleans

If you [G]tip 'em and they make a [F]cut [F#] [G]

[G]Do it! Take your mama [F]out all night

So [C]she'll have no doubt that we're doing oh the best we [G]can [F] [F#] [G]

[G]We're gonna do it! Take your mama [F]out all night

You can [C]stay up late 'cause baby you're a full grown [G]man [F] [F#] [G]

[G]It's a struggle livin' like a good boy [F]oughta

In the [C]summer watchin' all the girls pass [G]by

When your mama heard the way that you'd been [F]talkin’

I tried to [C]tell you that all she'd wanna do is [G]cry

[Am]Now we end up takin' the long way home, lookin' overdressed wearin' buckets of stale col-[G]ogne

[Am]It's so hard to see streets on a country road, when your glass is in the garbage, and your

Continental's just been [G]towed
