Smokey Robinson & the Miracles Shop Around [National Hit Version] Lyrics

When I became of age my mother called me to her side
She said son you're growing up now, pretty soon you'll take bride

Just because you've become a young man now
There's still some things that you don't understand now
Before you ask some girl for his hand now
Keep your freedom for as long as you can now

My mama told me
You better shop around
Oh yeah, you better shop around

There's some things that I want you to know now
Just as sure as the wind's gonna blow now
The women come and the women are gonna go now
Before you tell 'em that you love 'em so now

My mama told me
You better shop around
Oh yeah, you better shop around

Try to get yourself a bargain, son
Don't be sold on the very first one
A pretty girls come a dime a dozen
Try to find you one who's gonna give you true loving

Before you take a girl and say I do now
Make sure that she's in love with a you now
My mama told me
You better shop around

Try to get yourself a bargain, son
Don't be sold on the very first one
A pretty girls comes a dime a dozen
Try to find you one who's gonna give you true loving

Before you take a girl and say I do now
Make sure she's in love with you now
Make sure that her love is a true now
I hate to see you feeling sad and blue now

My mama told me
You better shop around
Oh yeah, you better shop around
