Tie Your Mother Down (Queen cover) Lyrics

Get your party gown and get your pigtail down
And get your heart beatin' baby
Got my timin' right I got my act all tight
It's gotta be tonight, my little school babe
Your Momma says you dont
And your daddy says you won't
And I'm burnin' up inside
Ain't no way I'm gonna lose out this time
Tie your mother down
Tie your mother down
Lock your daddy outdoors
I don't need him nosin' around
Tie your mother down
Tie your mother down
Give me all your love tonight
'You're such a dirty louse go get outa my house'
That's all I ever get from your family ties
In fact I don't think I ever heard
A single little civil word from those guys
I don't give a light
I'm gonna make out all right
I've got a sweetheart hand
To put a stop to all that
Snipin' and grousin'
Tie your mother down
Tie your mother down
Take your little brother swimmin'
With a brick that's all right
Tie your mother down
Tie your mother down
Or you ain't no friend of mine
oh ain't no friend of mine
I'm a bad guy
Your mommy and your daddy
Gonna plague me till I die
They can't understand it
I'm just a peace lovin' guy
Tie your mother down
Tie your mother down
Get that big big big big big big
Daddy outdoors
Tie your mother down yeah
Tie your mother down
Give me all your love tonight
All your love tonight
gimme every inch of your love
All your love tonight

Get your party gown and get your pigtail down
 And get your heart beatin' baby

 And I'm burnin' up inside

 Tie your mother down
 Tie your mother down
 Lock your daddy outdoors
 I don't need him nosin' around
 Tie your mother down
 Tie your mother down

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Ok totally sorry some of the lyrics are off, just puttin it out there now. And I'm so glad there's finally an internet site that has this song. Ususally if you look up Shinedown songs, Tie Your Mother Down isn't on the list. But I put them here, and here they are! This song is only found on youtube, which seems to be the same for dirthouse (it's the only place I've seen both of them), so I found it unfair. If I'm wrong, and these songs are somewhere else, please correct me! One last thing, this is not a normal Shinedown song. They usually don't sing this kind of thing, so nobody think that Shinedown is changing their stuff! Rock on, Shinedown.
