Your Mama Don't Dance
Loggins and Messina
This a great hand-clapping, juke-jivin type of song, played with
a swing-type of shuffle beat. This is best played with two accoustics,
so I've tabbed both guitar parts. This version is done in "A".

BRIDGE:
[D]You pull into a drive-way, you find a place to park.
[D]You hop into the backseat, where you know it's nice and dark.

OUTTA THE CAR LONG - HAIR!!!!
[E]Louise, you're coming with [D]me, and we'll call the p[A]olice.
