Shop Around

Just because you've become a young woman now
There's still some things that you don't understand now
Before you ask some boy for his hand now
Keep your freedom for as long as you can now
My mama told me
You better shop around

There's some things that I want you to know now
Just as sure as the wind's gonna blow now
The men come and the men gonna go now
Before you tell 'em that you love 'em so now
My mama told me
You better shop around
Woah, yeah, you better shop around

Ah, try to get yourself a bargain, girl
Don't be sold on the very first one
Ah, pretty guys come a dime a dozen
Ah, try to find you one who's gonna give you true loving

Before you take a man and say I do now
Make sure he's in love with you now
My mama told me
You better shop around
My mama told me
You better shop around
