Your mama don't dance
And your daddy don't rock and roll
(Your daddy don't rock and roll)
(Your daddy don't rock and roll)

Your mama don't dance
And your daddy don't rock and roll
(Yeah, your daddy don't rock and roll)
(Your daddy don't rock and roll)

But when evenin' 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's just no excuse
Though you gotta 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 evenin' rolls around
And it's time to go to town
Where do you go?
To rock and roll

Pulled into a drive in
Found a place to park
You hopped into the backseat
Where you know it's nice and dark

Just about to move in thinking it's a breeze
There's a light in my eye and a guy says
Out of the car long hair
Ooh wee, you're coming 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 evenin' rolls around
And it's time to go to town
Where do you go?
I don't know, to rock and roll

Where do you go?
To rock and roll
Where do you go?
To rock and roll
