[Verse 1]

If you want it to be good, girl, get yourself a bad boy

(Yeah, I like this)

(Yow, oh, yes)

(Oh, how)

(Come on, ah, I like this, yeah)

[Verse 2]

If you want it to be wild, gotta know just who to dial, baby (That's me)

If you really like it hot or someone who hits the spot, honey, oh, yes

And if you wanna get it done, babe, you've gotta get the one

The one who's got it goin' on

If you wanna make it last, gotta know just who to ask

Babe, he's gotta be the best, and that's me

[Verse 3]

If you want it to be good, girl, get yourself a bad boy

If you really want it good, girl, get yourself a bad boy, yeah

Get it like it could be, would be, yeah, like it should be

If you want it to be good, girl, get yourself a bad boy

[Verse 4]

Oh, how (You and me, babe)

Oh, yes

[Verse 5]

If you like it innovative, better get someone creative, honey, yes

And if you want it to be jammin', gotta get somebody slammin'

Baby, oh, yes

And if you wanna get it done, babe, you've gotta get the one

The one who's got it goin' on

Oh, if you wanna make it last, gotta know just who to ask

Babe, he's gotta be the best, and that's me

[Verse 6]

If you want it to be good, girl, get yourself a bad boy

If you really want it good, girl, get yourself a bad boy, oh, how

Get it like it could be, would be, yeah, like it should be

If you want it to be good, girl, get yourself a

(Bad boy, now listen)

[Verse 7]

These are things (Your mama shouldn't know)

These are things (I really wanna show)

These are things (I wanna show you how)

So won't you let me show you right now? (Ooh, baby)

[Verse 8]

(Gonna make it good)

And if you, yes (Alright)

[Verse 9]

And if you wanna get it done, babe, you've gotta get the one

The one who's got it goin' on

Oh, if you wanna make it last, gotta know just who to ask

Babe, he's gotta be the best, and that's me, my lady

If you want it to be good, girl, get yourself a bad boy, that's right

If you really want it good, girl, gotta get yourself a bad boy

If you really want it, (Oh, yeah) if you really want it

Get it like it could be, would be, yeah, like it should be

If you want it to be good, gotta be like it should

[Verse 10]

If you really want it good (Oh, how)

If you really want it good (I like this)

If you really want it good (If you really)

If you really want it good (Hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo)

If you really want it good (Ah, alright, ah, ooh, ah, mmhm)

If you really want it good (Ah, mmhm, ah, mmhm, ah)

If you really want it good (Ah, come on)

If you really want it good (I'm your bad boy, I'm your bad boy)

If you really want it good (Ah, oh, yeah, I like this)

If you really want it good (Oh, if you want it bad, baby, you got it)

If you really want it good

If you really want it good
