Tie Your Mother Down lyrics - Brandi Carlile

(originally by Queen)

(from "When We Rise" soundtrack)

Oooh yeah

Get your party gown, get your pigtail down

Get your heart beating baby

Got my timing right, got my act all tight

It's gotta be tonight, my little school babe

Your momma says you don't and your daddy says you won't

And I'm boiling up inside

There is no way I'm gonna lose out this time

Oh, no

Tie your mother down, tie your mother down

Lock your daddy out of doors, I don't need him nosing around

Tie your mother down, tie your mother down

Give me all your love tonight

"You're such a dirty louse, go get out of my house"

That's all I ever get from your

Your family ties, in fact, I don't think I ever heard

A single little civil word from those guys

But you know I don't give a light, I'm gonna make out all right

I've got a sweetheart in hand to put a stop to all that

Snipin' and grousin' goin' on all night

Tie your mother down, tie your mother down

Send your little brother swimming with a brick, that's alright

Tie your mother down, tie your mother down

Or you ain't no friend of mine

Your mommy and your daddy are gonna plague me till I die

They can't they understand it, I'm just a peace loving guy

Tie your mother down, tie your mother down

Get that big big big big big big daddy out the door

Tie your mother down, yeah, tie your mother down

Give me all your love tonight

All your love tonight

Give me every inch of your love

All your love tonight, yeah

All your love

Tonight
