Tie Your Mother Down (Live at the Montreal Forum, 1981)

[Intro]

Yes, let's go!

Ooh yeah

Everybody

[Verse 1]

Get your party gown, get your pigtail down

Get your heart beating baby

Got my timing right, got my act all tight

It's gotta be tonight, my little school babe

[Pre-Chorus 1]

Your momma says you don't and your daddy says you won't

And I'm boiling up inside

There is no way I'm gonna lose out this time

No way

[Chorus 1]

Tie your mother down, tie your mother down

Lock your daddy out of doors, I don't need him nosing around

Tie your mother down, tie your mother down

Give me all your love tonight

[Verse 2]

"You're such a dirty louse, go get out of my house"

That's all I ever get from you

And your family ties, in fact, I don't think I ever heard

A single little civil word from you guys

[Pre-Chorus 2]

But you know I don't give a light, I'm gonna make out all right

I've got a sweetheart in hand to put a stop to all that

Snipin' and fightin' goin' on

[Chorus 2]

Tie your mother down, tie your mother down

Send your little brother swimming with a brick, that's alright

Tie your mother down, tie your mother down

Or you ain't no friend of mine

[?]

[Guitar Solo]

Give it to me

Yeah

Alright

Go for it

Yeah

Go for it

Go for it

Yeah

Yeah

[Pre-Chorus 3]

Ooh our mommy and your daddy are gonna plague me till I die

They can't they understand it, I'm just a peace loving guy

[Chorus 3]

Tie your mother down, tie your mother down

Get that big big big big big big daddy out the door

Tie your mother down, yeah, tie your mother down

Give me all your love tonight

All your love tonight

[Outro]

Give me every inch of your love

All your love tonight, yeah

Now listen to me

I want it

Yeah

All your love tonight

I want it

Every inch of it

All your love tonight

Tonight
