Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Thirty days in the county jail
Let me out and I just wanted to wail
Some fool tried to hold me down
I got drunk and I ripped up the town
[Chorus]
I'm a bad boy, a bad boy for love
I'm a bad boy, a bad boy for love
[Verse 2]
Well I, I went around just to see my chick
I found her room and it was candle lit
She's makin' love to another man
I shot 'em both and they locked me in the slam
[Chorus]
I'm a bad boy, a bad boy for love
I'm a bad boy, a bad boy for love
Mmm bad, so bad
[Verse 3]
Well I, I heard the word there was a local break
It was a chance I just had to take
I jumped the wall and I was on the run
They came after me with a thousand guns
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm a bad boy, a bad boy for love
Yeah, I'm a bad boy, a bad boy for love
Yeah, I'm a bad boy, a bad boy for love
Yeah, I'm a bad boy, a bad boy for love
[Outro]
Honey, I'm bad, twenty years, mama
In the county jail
