Stop!
Stop telling me what to do

Dm
Don't!
Don't treat me like a child of two

Bb
No!
I know that you want what's best

C
Please!
But mother, please, give it a rest!!!

C F
                        Dm

Mama. I'm a big girl now!


F
Once upon a time when i was just a kid
    Dm
You never let me do iust what the older kids did
    Bb
But lose that laundry list of what you won't allow

       C               C7   F    C
'Cause mama, i'm a big girl now


F
Once upon a time i used to play with toys
    Dm
But now i'd rather play around with teenage boys
    Bb
So, if i get a hickey, please don't have a cow

       C               C7   F   F  
'Cause mama, i'm a big girl now


  Bb
Ma, i gotta tell you that without a doubt
         F
I get my best dancing lessons from you
    Bb
You're the one who taught me how to "twist and shout"
            G         Am    
Because you shout non stop
G                        C 
And you're so twisted too!
Wo  oh  oh  oh  oh

F
Once I used to fidget
'Cause I just sat home

    Dm
But now I'm just like Gidget
And I gotta get to Rome!

   Bb
So say, arrivederci!
Toodle loo!
And ciao!
       C               C7   F    C
'Cause mama, i'm a big girl now
