Stop
Stop telling me what to do-o
Don't
Don't treat me like a child of two-o
No
I know that you want what's best
Please
But mother please give it a rest

Stop, don't, no
Please

Stop, don't, no
Please

Stop, don't, no
Please

Mama, I'm a big girl now

Once upon a time when I was just a kid
You never let me do just what the older kids did
But lose that laundry list of what you won't allow
'Cause mama, I'm a big girl now (oh, Tracy)

Once upon a time I used to play with toys
But now I'd rather play around with teenage boys
So if I get a hicky please don't, have a cow
'Cause mama, I'm a big girl now

Ma, I gotta tell you that without a doubt
I got my best dancing lessons from yo-ou
You're the one who taught me how to twist and shout
Because you shout non-stop, and you're so twisted to-o
Oh

Once I used to fidget 'cause I just sat home
But now I'm just like gidget, and I gotta get to Rome
So say arrivederci, toodle-loo, and ciao
'Cause mama I'm a big girl now

Oh

Stop, don't, no
Please
Stop, don't, no
Please
Stop, don't, no
Please

Mama, I'm a big girl now

Hey mama
Say mama

Once upon a time I was a shy young thing
Could barely walk and talk so much as dance and sing
But let me hit that stage I wanna take my bow
'Cause mama, I'm a big girl now

Ooh
Once upon a time I used to dress up ken
But now that I'm a woman I like bigger men
And I don't need a Barbie doll to show me how
'Cause mama I'm a big girl now

Ooh

Ma, you always taught me what was right from wrong
And now I just wanna give it a try
Mama, I'm been in a nest for far to long
So please give a push and mama watch me fly
Watch me fly

Hey mama
Say mama

One day I will meet a man you won't condemn
And we will have some kids and you can torture them
But let me be a star before I take that vow
'Cause mama, I'm a big girl now
Oh
Mama, I'm a big girl now
Hey, ya, ya, ya, yay
Mama I'm a big girl
Oh, such a big big girl
I'm a big girl now oh

Mama, I'm a big girl now
