Lyrics:

Mother told me, yes, she told me I'd meet girls like you
She also told me, 'Stay away, you'll never know what you'll catch'
Just the other day I heard a soldier falling off
Some Indonesian junk that's going round

Mommy's alright, daddy's alright, they just seem a little weird
Surrender, surrender, but don't give yourself away

Father says, 'Your mother's right, she's really up on things
Before we married, mommy served in the Wacs in the Philippines'
Now, I had heard the Wacs recruited old maids for the war
But mommy isn't one of those, I've known her all these years
