Stealin', stealin',

Mama, don't ya tell on me,

I'm stealing back to the way I used to be.

Well, put your arms around me,

Like a circle round the sun,

We can have a little fun.

How glad it's you,

And not your sister with me now,

Saw her yesterday,

And she look's just like a ...,

Stealin', stealin,

Mama, don't ya tell on me,

I'm stealing back to the way I used to be.

I'm stealin', stealin,

Mama, don't ya tell on me,

And look up to the sun.

Just for you and I,

Look, I mean to walk you home,

So I'd rather stay at home.

Stealin', stealin,

Mama, don't ya tell on me,

I'm stealing back to the way I used to be.

I'm stealin', stealin,

Mama, don't ya tell on me,

I'm stealing back to the way I used to be.

Stealin', stealin,

Mama, don't ya tell on me,

I'm stealing back to the way I used to be.

Stealin', stealin,

Mama, don't ya tell on me,
