Now on the night I arrived* |
|
My daddy said "Sake's Alive!" |
|
It's the meanest one that we've had yet |
|
Teethed on tin and weaned on gin |
|
I was nobody's teacher's pet |
|
I grew up rough and mean |
|
In my early teens |
|
And I didn't want to go to school |
|
I called no man "Sir" |
|
Work was a dirty word |
|
My biggest kick was breakin' the rules |
|
So when you see me comin' get away |
|
The ones that didn't ain't around today |
|
The sweetest piece of lovin' any girl ever had |
|
I'm here to tell you boys I was born to be bad |
|
Born, Born to be bad |
|
I was Born |
|
Born to be bad |
|
Now when I reached 21 I knew the time had come |
|
I had that old ramblin' itch |
|
Breaking little girls hearts I tore the world apart |
|
A guitar playin' son of a (guitar) |
|
Born to be bad |
|
That is the story of my life |
|
Doin' things wrong was my way of doin' things right |
|
Now when I'm gray and old |
|
And my story is told |
|
I know what the people will say |
|
They'll be glad to see me go |
|
But the little girls'll know |
|
I was bad till my dyin' day |
|
So when you see me comin' get away |
|
The ones that didn't ain't around today |
|
The sweetest piece of loving any girl ever had |
|
I'm here to tell you boys I was born to be bad |
|
Born, Born to be bad |
|
I was Born |
|
Born to be bad |
|
Born to be bad |
|
That is the story of my life |
|
Doin' things wrong was my way of doin' things right |
|
Now when I'm old and gray |
|
And I've had my day |
|
I know what the people will do |
|
They'll be glad to see me go |
|
But the little girls'll know |
|
I was bad till the day I was Through |
|
So when you see me comin' get away |
|
The ones that didn't ain't around today |
|
The sweetest piece of loving any girl ever had |
|
I'm here to tell you boys I was born to be bad |
|
Born, Born to be bad |
|
I was Born |
|
Born to be bad |
|
I was Born |
|
Born to be bad, yeah |
|
Bad! |
