Little sister don't you, little sister don't you
Little sister don't you kiss me once or twice
Tell me that it's nice and then you run
Yeah, yeah little sister don't do what your big sister done

You know I dated your big sister
Oh I took her to the show
Yeah I went for some candy along came Jim Dandy
And they slipped right out the door

Little sister don't you, little sister don't you
Little sister don't you kiss me once or twice
Tell me that it's nice and then you run
Yeah little sister don't do what your big sister done

I used to pull down on your pigtails
Hey girl and pinch your turned up nose
Oh but baby you been growin' and lately it's been showin'
From your head down to your toes

Little sister don't you, little sister don't you
Little sister don't you kiss me once or twice
Tell me that it's nice and then you run
Yeah little sister don't do what your big sister done

Everytime I see your sister
Lord she's with somebody new
Oh she's mean and she's evil like a little ol' boll weevil
Think I'll try my luck with you

Little sister don't you, little sister don't you
Little sister don't you kiss me once or twice
Tell me that it's nice and then you run
Yeah little sister don't do what your big sister done
Well little sister don't you do what your big sister done
Oh little sister don't you do what your big sister done
