Your Mama Don't Dance
Kenny Loggins and Jim Messina (1972)


Intro:
| [C]   | [C]   | [C]   | [C]   |

Your [C] mama don't dance and your [F] daddy don't rock n' [C] roll [C]
Your [F] mama don't dance and your daddy don't rock n' [C] roll [C]
When [G] evenin' rolls around and it's [F] time to go to town
Where do you [C] go, to rock and roll

The [C] old folks say that you [F] gotta end your day by [C] ten [C]
If you're [F] out on a date and you bring it home late, it's a [C] sin [C]
There [G] just ain't no excuse and you [F] know you're gonna lose
And never [C] win, I'll say it a- [C↓] gain
And it's all because

Your [C] mama don't dance and your [F] daddy don't rock n' [C] roll [C]
Your [F] mama don't dance and your daddy don't rock n' [C] roll [C]
When [G] evenin' rolls around and it's [F] time to go to town
Where do you [C] go, to rock and roll

You [F↓]  pull into a drive-in and [F↓]  find a place to park
You [F↓]  hop into the back seat where you [F↓]  know it's nice and dark
You're [F↓]  just about to move in, you're [F↓]  thinkin' it's a breeze
There's a [F↓]  light in your eye and then a guy says [F↓]  “Out of the car, long hair!”
“Oo- [G] wee, you're comin' with [F] me, the local po- [C] lice!” [C↓]
And it's all because

Your [C] mama don't dance and your [F] daddy don't rock n' [C] roll [C]
Your [F] mama don't dance and your daddy don't rock n' [C] roll [C]
When [G] evenin' rolls around and it's [F] time to go to town
Where do you [C] go, to rock and roll
Where do you [C] go, to rock and roll
Where do you [C] go, to rock and [C↓]  roll [F↓] [C↓]
