Shop Around lyrics

Shop Around
Captain & Tennille
Words and Music: William `Smokey` Robinson and Berry Gordy

Just because you`ve become a young woman now
There`s still some things that you don`t understand now
Before you ask some guy 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`ll come and the men are gonna go now
Before you tell `em that you love `em so now
My mama told me
You better shop around

Try to get yourself a bargain, girl
Don`t be sold on the very first one
Good-looking guys come a dime a dozen
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
Make sure that his love is true now
I hate to see you feeling sad and blue now
My mama told me
You better shop around
