[Verse 1]
Get your party gown
Get your pigtail down
Get your heart beating baby
Got my timing right
Got my act all tight
It's got to be tonight my little
School babe
[Guitar solo]

Your momma says you don't
And your Daddy says you won't
And I'm boiling up inside
There is no way I'm going to lose out this time

[Chorus]
Tie your Mother down
Tie your Mother down
Lock your Daddy out of doors
I don't need him nosing around
Tie your Mother down
Tie your Mother down
Give me all your love tonight

[Verse 2]
You're such a dirty louse
Go get out of my house
That's all I ever get from your
Family ties, in fact I don't think I ever heard
A single little civil word
From those guys
But you know I don't give a light
I'm going to make out all right
I've got a sweetheart hand
To put a stop to all that
Grousing and sniping
[Chorus]
Tie your Mother down
Tie your Mother down
Send your brother swimming with a brick
That's alright
Tie your Mother down
Tie your Mother down
Or you ain't no friend of mine!

[Verse 3]
Your momma and your Daddy going to
Plague me until I die
Why can't they understand I'm just a
Peace loving guy

[Chorus]
Tie your Mother down
Tie your Mother down
Get that big big big big big big
Daddy out the door
Tie your mother down yeah
Tie your mother down
Give me all your love tonight
All your love tonight
