Smokey Robinson - Shop Around lyrics
rate meSpoken:<br />
When I became of age my mother called me to her side<br />
She said ´son you´re growing up now, pretty soon<br />
You´ll take a bride´...<br />
<br />
Sings:<br />
And then she said...<br />
´Just because you´ve become a young man now<br />
(Man, now)<br />
There´s still some things that you don´t understand now<br />
(Son, now)<br />
Before you ask some girl for her hand now<br />
(My son)<br />
Keep your freedom for as long as you can now´<br />
<br />
My mama told me...´you better shop around´<br />
(Shop, shop around) a-whoa-yeah<br />
You better (uh-huh) shop around<br />
(Shop, shop around)<br />
Uh-uh-uh<br />
<br />
´There´s some things that I want you to know now<br />
(Uh-huh-...ooo)<br />
A just as sure as the winds gonna blow now<br />
(Uh-huh-...ooo)<br />
The women come and the women gonna go now<br />
(Uh-huh...ooo)<br />
Before you tell ´em that you love ´em so now<br />
My mama told me...´you better shop around´<br />
(Shop, shop around) whoa-yeah<br />
You better (uh-huh) shop around<br />
(Shop, shop around)<br />
<br />
´A-gotta get yourself a bargain son<br />
Don´t be sold on the very first one<br />
A-pretty girls come a dime a dozen<br />
A-try to find one who´s gonna give ya true lovin´<br />
(Uh-huh...ooo)<br />
´Before you take a girl and say I do now<br />
A make sure she´s in love with-a you now´<br />
My mama told me<br />
(You better shop around)<br />
<br />
Instrumental<br />
<br />
Oh-hey-hey-hey<br />
(ooooooh)<br />
´Try to get yourself a bargain son<br />
Don´t be sold on the very first one<br />
(First one, first one)<br />
A pretty girls come a dime a dozen<br />
A try to find one who´s gonna give ya true lovin´<br />
(Uh-huh...ooo)<br />
Before you take a girl and say ´I do´ now<br />
Make sure she´s in love with a-you now<br />
Make sure that her love is true now<br />
I´d hate to see you feelin´ sad and blue now´<br />
My Mama told me<br />
´You better shop around´<br />
(Shop, shop around)<br />
(Uh-huh ´don´t let the first one get you´)<br />
(Shop, shop around)<br />
On no,'cause I don´t wanna see ya ´wicher´<br />
(Uh-huh shop, shop around)<br />
Uh-huh ´before you let ´em hold you tight´<br />
(Shop, shop around)<br />
A-yeah-yeah (shop around)<br />
´Make sure she's alright´<br />
(Uh-huh, shop, shop around)<br />
´Uh-huh before you let ´em take your hand my son´<br />
