Shop Around lyrics
Songwriters: Gordy, B; Robinson, W
Spoken:
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´...
Sings:
And then she said...
´Just because you´ve become a young man now
(Man, now)
There´s still some things that you don´t understand now
(Son, now)
Before you ask some girl for her hand now
(My son)
Keep your freedom for as long as you can now´
My mama told me...´you better shop around´
(Shop, shop around) a-whoa-yeah
You better (uh-huh) shop around
(Shop, shop around)
Uh-uh-uh
´There´s some things that I want you to know now
(Uh-huh-...ooo)
A just as sure as the winds gonna blow now
(Uh-huh-...ooo)
The women come and the women gonna go now
(Uh-huh...ooo)
Before you tell ´em that you love ´em so now
My mama told me...´you better shop around´
(Shop, shop around) whoa-yeah
You better (uh-huh) shop around
(Shop, shop around)
´A-gotta 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 ya true lovin´
(Uh-huh...ooo)
´Before you take a girl and say I do now
A make sure she´s in love with-a you now´
My mama told me
(You better shop around)
Instrumental
Oh-hey-hey-hey
(ooooooh)
´Try to get yourself a bargain son
Don´t be sold on the very first one
(First one, first one)
A pretty girls come a dime a dozen
A try to find one who´s gonna give ya true lovin´
(Uh-huh...ooo)
Before you take a girl and say ´I do´ now
Make sure she´s in love with a-you now
Make sure that her love is true now
I´d hate to see you feelin´ sad and blue now´
My Mama told me
´You better shop around´
(Shop, shop around)
(Uh-huh ´don´t let the first one get you´)
(Shop, shop around)
On no,'cause I don´t wanna see ya ´wicher´
(Uh-huh shop, shop around)
Uh-huh ´before you let ´em hold you tight´
(Shop, shop around)
A-yeah-yeah (shop around)
´Make sure she's alright´
(Uh-huh, shop, shop around)
´Uh-huh before you let ´em take your hand my son´
(Uh-huh, shop, shop around)
´Understand my son´
(Uh-huh, shop, shop around)
´Be a man my son´
(Uh-huh, shop, shop around)
´I know you can my son´
(Uh-huh, shop, shop around)
I love it
(Uh-huh shop, shop around)
A shop around...
