SHOP AROUND Berry Gordy, Smokey Robinson Recorded by The Miracles, 1960
When GI became of age, my mama cCalled me to her side. She said, "SAon, you're growing up now, pretty sDoon you'll take a bride." And then she sGaid:
G7Just because you've becC7ome a young man now G7There's still some things that you dC7on't understand, now. G7Before you ask some gC7irl for her hand, now, G7Keep your freedom for as lC7ong as you can, now. A7My mama told mD7e, You'd better shop arouGnd. Oh yC7eah, You better shG7op around. D7
There's some things that I want you to know, now. Just as sure as the wind's gotta blow, now, The women come and the women gonna go, now. Before you tell 'em that you love 'em so, now, My mama told me, You'd better shop around. Oh yeah, You'd better shop around. *
C7Try to get yourself a bargain, son. G7Don't be sold on the very first one. C7Pretty girls come a dime a dozen, A7Try to find one who's gonna gD7ive you true lovin'.
Before you take a girl and say "I do" now, Make sure she's in love with you, now. My mama told me, You'd better shop around. Oh yeah, you'd better shop around. (sax solo) (repeat bridge) 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 true, now. I'd hate to see you feeling sad and blue, now. My mama told me, You'd better shop around. Oh yeah, don't let the first one get you. 'Cause I don't want to see her with you. Before you let her hold you tight, Make sure she's all right. Before you let her take your hand, my son Understand, my son, be a man, my son, I know you can, my son...
