My mama done told me, girl watch your moves
And don't be taken by the eyes of some fool
Well he may seem pretty, charming, and oh, so cool
Don't leap before you know what your leaping into
So here you are, standing right in front of me
And I think I like this, being swept off my feet
Oh mama he's pretty, charming and oh, so cool
Here I go again and I like what I'm leaping into
Chorus
I guess my mama knew, yeah I'd say that she's right
She must have seen you before in my daddy's eyes
Oh mama he's pretty, charming and oh, so cool
Don't you leap before you know what your leaping into
Chorus
