(Momma didn't know, Momma didn't know

Nobody will ever know)

Because I'm never gonna tell, I'm never gonna tell

I'm never gonna tell on you (doo-wah)

If you don't tell on me little girl

I'm never gonna tell on you oh-oh

Never gonna tell on you



I'm never gonna tell, I'm never gonna tell

I'm never gonna tell on you

If you don't tell on me little girl

I'm never gonna tell on you oh-oh

Never gonna tell on you

(Never gonna tell on you)



Somebody sneaked out late last night

The stars were shining and the moon was bright

Somebody kissed me tenderly

But I ain't saying who the guy might be



(Momma didn't know, Momma didn't know

And nobody will ever know)

Because I'm never gonna tell, I'm never gonna tell

I'm never gonna tell on you (doo-wah)

There's so much bliss in stolen kisses

Till you're old enough to say I do

Never gonna tell on you

(Never gonna tell on you)

(Never gonna tell on you)



Somebody better treat me nice

Listen to a bit of good advice

Meet me tonight my buttercup

You might be sorry if you don't show up



(Momma didn't know, Momma didn't know

And nobody will ever know)

Because I'm never gonna tell, I'm never gonna tell

I'm never gonna tell on you (doo-wah)

If you don't tell on me little girl

I'm never gonna tell on you oh-oh

Never gonna tell on you



I'm never gonna tell, I'm never gonna tell

I'm never gonna tell on you

There's so much bliss in stolen kisses

Till you're old enough to say I do

Never gonna tell on yoooooouuuuuuuuu

(Never gonna tell on you)

(Never gonna tell on you)

FADE:

(Never gonna tell on you)

(Never gonna tell on you)

(Never gonna tell on you)
