Your Mama Don't Dance Lyrics


Your mama don't dance
And your daddy don't rock 'n' roll
Your mama don't dance
And your daddy don't rock 'n' rollBut when evening comes around
And it's time to hit the town
Where do you go? You gotta rock itThe old folks say
That ya gotta end your date by ten
"But if you're out on a date
Don't you bring her home late
'Cuz it's a sin"You know there's no excuse
You know you're gonna lose
You never win
I'll say it againAnd it's all because your mama don't dance
And your daddy don't rock 'n' roll
Your mama don't dance
And your daddy don't rock 'n' rollWhen evening rolls around
And it's time to hit the town
Where do you go? To rock it, rock itEveryone, gather 'round

Let me tell you all about it
You see I pulled into a drive-in
And I found a place to parkWe hopped into the backseat
Where it's always nice and dark
I'm just about to move
Thinking to myself, Mmm, bet this is a breezeThen there's a light in my eye and a guy says
Out of the car, long hair
Oowee, You're coming with me
Said the local policeAnd it's all because your mama don't dance
And your daddy don't rock 'n' roll
Your mama don't dance
And your daddy don't rock 'n' rollWhen evening rolls around
And it's time to hit the town
Where do you go? Play me a little, C.C.Your mama don't dance
And your daddy don't rock 'n' roll
Your mama don't dance
And your daddy don't rock 'n' rollThey just ain't cool
And they ain't about to start
Your mama don't dance
And you daddy don't rockYour mama don't dance, no
She just don't dance, no
Your mama don't dance
And your daddy don't rock 'n' roll, oh, no

Singer, songwriter, and guitarist Kenny Loggins was born in Everett, WA, and moved to Los Angeles in his teens. He got a job as a staff writer and wrote four songs used on a Nitty Gritty Dirt Band album in 1970, among them the hit "House at Pooh Corner." This brought him to the attention of former Poco member Jim Messina, now a staff producer at CBS, who intended to produce Loggins' debut album. The two ended up in a duo, however, and Loggins & Messina made a series of successful albums during the '70s.

Loggins & Messina broke up in 1976, and Loggins went on to solo stardom with such million-selling albums as Celebrate Me Home, Nightwatch (which included the hit "Whenever I Call You Friend"), and Keep the Fire, all in the cheerful, sensitive style he had displayed in Loggins & Messina. Loggins also became known as the king of the movie soundtrack song, scoring Top Ten hits with "I'm Alright" (from Caddyshack), "Footloose" (from Footloose), "Danger Zone" (from Top Gun), and "Nobody's Fool" (from Caddyshack II). His own albums sold less well (and came less frequently) throughout the '80s, with later efforts like 1991's Leap of Faith, 1997's The Unimaginable Life and 1998's December finding favor primarily in adult contemporary circles; in 1994, he also issued a children's album, Return to Pooh Corner, and released its sequel More Songs from Pooh Corner in early 2000.
