曲：William Smoky Robinson 词：Berry Gordy
Just because you've become a young woman now
There's still some things
That you don't understand now
Before you ask some guy for his hand
Keep your freedom for as you can now
My mom told me:“You better shop around”.
Um,Um...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 men'll come and the men are gonna go now,
Before you tell'em that you love'em so now,
My mama told me:“You better shop around”.
Um,Um...You better shop around
Try to get yourself a bargain,girl,
Don't you be sold on the very first one,
Good-looking guys come a dime a dozzen.
Try to find you one
Who's gonna give you true loving,
Before you take a man and say I do now,
Make sure he's in love with you now,
My mama told me:“You better shop around”.
Um,Um...You better shop around
Try to get yourself a bargain,girl,
Don't you be sold on the very first one,
Good-looking guys come a dime a dozzen.
Try to find you one
Who's gonna give you true loving,
Before you take a man and say I do now,
Make sure he's in love with you now,
Make sure that his love is true now,
I hate to see you feeling say and blue now,
My mama told me:“You better shop around”.
Um,Um...You better shop around......
