Yes, My Darling Daughter

(Jack Lawrence)

(vocals: Marion Hutton)



I've gotta be good or momma will scold me

Yes, yes, yes

I asked her and this is what she told me:

Yes, yes, yes



Mother, may I go out dancing?

Yes, my darling daughter!

Mother, may I try romancing?

Yes, my darling daughter!



What if there's a moon,

Momma darling, and it's shining on the water?

Mother, must I keep on dancing?

Yes, my darling daughter!



What if he'll propose,

Momma darling, when the night is growing shorter?

Mother, what should be my answer?

"Yes", my darling daughter!
