ou're so hot, teasing me
So you're blue but I cant take a chance on a chick like you
That's something I couldn't do
There's that look in your eyes
I can read in your face that your feelings are driving you wild
Ah, but girl you're only a child

Well I can dance with you honey
If you think its funny
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
Does your mother know that you're out?

Take it easy (take it easy)
Better slow down girl
That's no way to go
Does your mother know?
Take it easy (take it easy)
Try to cool it girl
Take it nice and slow
Does your mother know?

I can see what you want
But you seem pretty young to be searching for that kind of fun
So maybe I'm not the one
Now you're so cute, I like your style
And I know what you mean when you give me a flash of that smile (smile)
But girl you're only a child

Well I can dance with you honey
If you think its funny
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
Does your mother know that you're out?

Take it easy (take it easy)
Better slow down girl
That's no way to go
Does your mother know?
Take it easy (take it easy)
Try to cool it girl
Take it nice and slow
Does your mother know?

Well I can dance with you honey
If you think its funny
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
Does your mother know that you're out?

Voulez-Vous is the sixth studio album by Swedish pop group ABBA, released in 1979. It was the first ABBA album to be recorded at Polar Music Studios in Stockholm, and the only ABBA album to include a studio recording made outside Sweden. Voulez-Vous sold more than 400,000 in UK in the first week alone[1] Voulez-Vous was first released in CD in 1984. The album has been reissued in digitally remastered form three times; first in 1997, then in 2001 and again in 2005 as part of the The Complete Studio Recordings box set.

"Does Your Mother Know?", originally "I Can Do It", is the name of a song recorded in 1979 by Swedish pop group ABBA, and was the second single to be released from their album Voulez-Vous. The B-side was "Kisses of Fire", also taken from the album.

"Does Your Mother Know?" was recorded in February 1979 and released as a single in April of that year. Written by Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus, the song is something of a pastiche to 1950s/early 1960s-style rock and roll, and touches on the subject of a man flirting with a much younger girl. "Does Your Mother Know?" deviated from the typical 'ABBA at their most famous' formula, in that the lead vocals were sung not by the female vocalists (Agnetha Fältskog and Anni-Frid Lyngstad) as was usually the case, but by Björn Ulvaeus.

"Does Your Mother Know?" was another sizable ABBA hit, hitting No.1 in Belgium and reaching the Top Five in Ireland, the UK and the Netherlands. It was also a Top 10 hit in Switzerland, Australia, Canada, Zimbabwe (then Rhodesia) and West Germany. In the United States, "Does Your Mother Know?" would become ABBA's penultimate Top 20 hit, reaching No.19.
