Your Mama Don't Dance
Loggins and Messina
Tab by:omanyen@fusemail.com
This a great hand-clapping, juke-jivin type of song, played with
a swing-type of shuffle beat. This is best played with two accoustics,
so I've tabbed both guitar parts. This version is done in "A".

Louise, you're coming with me, and we'll call the police.
