[Verse 1] On a Monday night at the Rose and Crown was a man watching me He had the refrigerated lager demeanor, bit the bottle top with his teeth, oh He has auburn hair and trouble in his eyes and a smile to start a fire There inside my dull, uninspired heart, mm Fast-forward to a couple of weeks and I think I've fallen in love He doesn't have anything going for him But has a little red car, he calls her Carly (Carly) I'm sitting beside him with my hand in his pocket and we're driving with nowhere to go But how it soothes my aching soul [Chorus] Girl, what would your mother say? She said, "Take your time, baby, you can go both ways" Girl, what would your daddy say? He said I could do better, do, do-do-do better Woo-woo-woo, what would your grandma do? Oh, what would she do? She would get on her knees and pray that I don't make this mistake Grandma calls the boy bad news [Post-Chorus] Oh-oh, oh (Yeah, yeah) (Oh, yeah, oh, yeah) And she says that I can do (Do better, do, do-do-do) [Verse 2] On a Tuesday morn' in his bedroom, I lay tangled in his arms He still lives in his mother's house, but it does add to his charms I lay my head on his tattooed chest that spells out "Carpe Diem," baby Then he asked me to be his lady, gotta think 'bout [Chorus] Girl, what would your mother say? She said, "Take your time, baby, you can go both ways" Girl, what would your daddy say? Oh, said I could do better, do, do-do-do better Woo-woo-woo, what would your grandma do? Oh, what would she do?

And now she cussin' me out on the phone She told me get a car and get my ass back home Hoping I will come to my senses, oh, oh, oh [Chorus] Well, what would your mother say? She said, "Take your time, baby, you can go both ways" Girl, what would your daddy say? He said I could do better, do, do-do-do better Woo-woo-woo, what would your grandma do? Oh, what would she do?
