Harris Emmylou - Everytime You Leave lyrics

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 now

Keep your freedom for as long as you can now

My mama told me

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

Try to get yourself a bargain, girl

Don't be sold on the very first one

Good-looking guys come a dime a dozen

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 sad and blue now

My mama told me

You better shop around
