Go Home And Tell Your Mother 1930

Our hands and eyes have met,
out lips are friendly too,
Don't you think that you should go
and warn the fam'ly?
You owe your folks a debt
of confidence, it's true,
and mother knows what's best
so get this off your chest!

Go home and tell your mother
that she certainly did
a wonderful job on you.
Go home and tell your father
that we're marryin'
like respectable people too
then tell her that I love,
tell father that you love,
that only a few love
exactly like we two love,
Go home and tell your mother
that her beautiful child
is gonna belong to me.

Go home and tell your mother
that I certainly have
a terrible crush on you
Go home and tell your father
that I'm willing to marry
all of your fam'ly too
then ask her what she did,
ask father what he did
when both of them
needed each other
just like we did
go home and tell your mother
that her beautiful child
is gonna belong to me.

When you blew in my life
like some refreshing breeze,
I'll admit my knees
were feeling rather shaky,
Now I'll begin my life
and love you as I please.
You told me what to do
you'll have to bear it too.

Go home and tell your mother
that she certainly did
a wonderful job on you.
Go home and tell your father
that we're marryin'
like respectable people too
then tell her that I love,
tell father that you love,
that only a few love
exactly like we two love,
Go home and tell your mother
that her beautiful child
is gonna belong to me.

Go home and tell your mother
that I certainly have
a terrible crush on you
Go home and tell your father
that I'm willing to marry
all of your fam'ly too
then ask her what she did,
ask father what he did
when both of them
needed each other
just like we did
go home and tell your mother
that her beautiful child
is gonna belong to me.
