Daughter, daughter, daughter
Daughter, daughter, daughter
Daughter, daughter, daughter
Daughter, daughter, daughter

Daughter, better
Leave those boys alone
(Leave those boys alone)
(Daughter, leave those boys alone)

Daughter, after school,
Come straight home
(Leave those boys alone)
(Daughter, leave those boys alone)

Go the store, come back
And mop the floors
And do your other chores

Daughter, gotta
Stop that messing round
(Leave those boys alone)
(Daughter, leave those boys alone)

Daughter, you know those
Boys will bring you down
(Leave those boys alone)
(Daughter, leave those boys alone)

You're acting like a clown
But that's what's going around
You're chasing every boy in town

Daughter, mother's older than you
(Mother is old now)
(She's so much older)
I have experience
What you're now going through

I know what's on your mind
(What's on your mind now)
But for that, there's plenty of time
Mother wouldn't steer you wrong
Daughter, leave those boys alone

Daughter, you're too
Young to say I do
(Leave those boys alone)
(Daughter, leave those boys alone)

You would have to leave school
And your mom and daddy too
(Leave those boys alone)
(Daughter, leave those boys alone)

The boys will have to wait
Until you graduate, I mean it
Leave those boys alone

Leave those boys alone
Leave those boys alone
Leave those boys alone
