My parents always told me go be good in school
Please listen to the teachers, follow all those rules
Don't you break those rules
Don't hang around with bad girls, they'll only lead you astray
Stay away from the bad boys
All that's on their mind's rolling in the hay
But I don't think I listen very well
She told me
Boys are all the same, only want one thing
Not talking fancy cars or them diamond rings
Play it cool
Remember mama's golden rule
Some will take your money, some will take your heart
And some will leave with both, tear your world apart
Play it cool
Remember mama's golden rule
Remember mama's golden rule
I tried to be a good girl and do what she said
But it's not very easy, mama I'm still young
Mama I'm still young
So now I'm back to party and wanna have some fun
I never leave the disco till the lights come on
And the night is done
But one thing always stays inside my mind
Boys are all the same, only want one thing
Not talking fancy cars or them diamond rings
Play it cool
Remember mama's golden rule
Some will take your money, some will take your heart
And some will leave with both, tear your world apart
Play it cool
Remember mama's golden rule
Remember mama's golden rule
My mama told me use my head, my head
Try remember every word she said
Uh huh woah oh
Ah ah oh woah oh
Uh huh woah oh
My mama told me use my head, my head
Try remember every word she said
Uh huh woah oh
Ah ah oh woah oh
Uh huh woah oh
Boys are all the same, only want one thing
Not talking fancy cars or them diamond rings
Play it cool
Remember mama's golden rule
Some will take your money, some will take your heart
And some will leave with both, tear your world apart
Play it cool
Remember mama's golden rule
Remember mama's golden rule
