Why do you bob your hair, girls? You're doing mighty wrong God says it is a glory, and you should wear it long You spoil your lovely hair, girls, to keep yourself in style Before you bob your hair, girls, just stop and think a while Why do you bob your hair, girls? It is an awful shame To rob the head God gave you and bear the flapper's name You're taking off your covering, it is an awful sin Don't never bob your hair, girls, short hair belongs to men Why do you bob your hair, girls? It does not look so nice It's just to keep in fashion, 'tis not the Lord's advice And every time you bob it, you're breaking God's command You can not bob your hair, girls, and reach the Glory Land Why do you bob your hair, girls? It's not the thing to do Just wear it, always wear it, and to the Lord be true And when before the Judgement, you meet the Lord up there He'll say, "Well done, for one thing, you never bobbed your hair"
