Mama, please let me go to the show
I dig those bad boys playing that rock and roll
No way, son, you can't go out tonight
So I got real upset, put up the biggest fight

Mama, let me go to the show
I dig those bad boys playing that rock and roll
Mama, let me go out tonight
Oh, Mama, please, before I lose my mind

Out the window shimmy down the tree
I take a look around make sure no one's watching me
I steal the keys and take my old man's Chevrolet
I can hear my mama scream from ten miles away

Mama, let me go to the show
I dig those bad boys playing that rock and roll
Mama, let me go out tonight
Oh, Mama, please, before I lose my mind

Rock and roll rodeo
Rock and roll rodeo

Mama, let me go to the show
I dig those bad boys playing that rock and roll
Mama, let me go out tonight
Oh, Mama, please, Mama
Sing one more time

Mama, let me go to the show
Na-ah, no way, no way son
Mama, let me go out tonight
I gotta gotta go, gotta gotta go, gotta gotta gotta go to the show
