[Verse 1] I saw you eye him twice At the corner of the room You got that sugar smile But baby, he ain't new His hand on my waist Like a ring with a pulse I know what I got And I don't let go too much [Pre-Chorus] So keep your pretty paws back Keep your long glance low He come home with my name on him You already know [Chorus] Hands off Mabel Hands off Mabel He in my arms tonight Hands off Mabel (hey) Hands off Mabel Hands off Mabel You can look, that's fine But he's mine, mine, mine [Verse 2] You can wear that red And you can toss your hair You can laugh real soft Like you ain't even there But he kissed my mouth By the checkered floor And when he calls my name You won't hear yours no more [Pre-Chorus] So keep your pretty paws back Keep your long glance low He come home with my name on him You already know [Chorus] Hands off Mabel Hands off Mabel He in my arms tonight Hands off Mabel (hey) Hands off Mabel Hands off Mabel You can look, that's fine But he's mine, mine, mine [Bridge] Hush now, darling Read the room That man got roots And he grew in my bloom I don't share my fire I don't lend my flame If you want a warning Baby, learn my name [Chorus] Hands off Mabel Hands off Mabel He in my arms tonight Hands off Mabel (hey) Hands off Mabel Hands off Mabel You can look, that's fine But he's mine, mine, mine
