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 drive-in
And find a place to park
You hop into the backseat
where you know it's nice
and dark
You're just about to move in
Thinkin' it's a breeze
in your eye
And then a guy says
Out of the car long-hair
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
