Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][F][Am][G]
[G][F][Am][G]

[Verse 1]
When you [G]grow up
living like a good boy [F]ought to
And your [Am]mama takes a shine to her best [G]son
Something different
all the girls, they seem to [F]like you
'Cause you're [Am]handsome
like to talk, and a whole lot of [G]fun

[Pre-chorus 1]
But now your [Am]girl has gone a- [G]missing
and your [Am]house has got an [D]empty [G]bed
The folks'll [Am]wonder 'bout the [G]wedding
they won't [Am]listen to a [D]word you [G]said

[Chorus 1]
We're gonna [G]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 m[G]usic 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 cut
[F]Do [D]it,[G] take your mama out al[F]l night
So, she'll [C]have no doubt
that we're doing all the best we [G]can
[F]We'[D]re gonna do [G]it
take your mama [F]out all night
You can [C]stay up late, 'cause baby
you're a full-grown [G]man[F][D]

[Interlude 1]
[G][F][Am][G]

[Verse 2]
It's a [G]struggle, living like a good boy [F]oughta
In the [Am]summer, watching all the girls pass [G]by
When your mama
heard the way that you'd been [F]talking
I tried to [Am]tell you that all she'd wanna do is [G]cry

[Pre-chorus 2]
Now we [Am]end up taking the l[G]ong way home
[Am]Looking overdressed
wearing [D]buckets of stale co[G]logne
So [Am]hard to see streets on a [G]country road
When your [Am]glasses in the garbage
and your [D]continental's just been [G]towed

[Chorus 2]
We're gonna [G]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 cut
[F]Do [D]it,[G] take your mama out al[F]l night
So, she'll [C]have no doubt
that we're doing all the best we [G]can
[F]We'[D]re gonna do [G]it
take your mama [F]out all night
You can [C]stay up late, 'cause baby
you're a full-grown [G]man[F][D]

[Solo 1]
[G][F][C][G]
[G][F][C][G]

[Chorus 3]
[G]Do it, take your mama [F]out all night
So, she'll [C]have no doubt
that we're doing all the best we [G]can
[F]We'[D]re gonna do [G]it
take your mama [F]out all night
You can [C]stay up late, 'cause baby
you're a full-grown [G]man[F][D]
[G]
