Sometimes you're acting the fool Sometimes you're breaking the rules Sometimes you wanna run away Sometimes you stay out of school Pre-Chorus Well it's a dirty old town And you know it's where we all belong Tell your mama back home She was just the same when she was young I wanna give you some advice Lock up your daughters right now We'll give you a smile on your face Lock up your daughters somehow This is the time, the time and the place verse 2 N.C. Sometimes you whip up a storm Don't get to bed until dawn Sometimes you get a little high And wish you'd never been born Pre-Chorus Well it's a crazy old world Everybody's gotta get along Tell your mama back home It was just the same when she was young I'll tell you right now Lock up your daughters right now We'll give you a smile on your face Lock up your daughters somehow This is the time, the time and the place Solo N.C. (x3) You better lock up your daughters right now We'll give you a smile on your face Lock up your daughters somehow This is the time and the place Lock up your daughters right now We'll give you a smile on your face Lock up your daughters somehow This is the time, the time and the place
