Bad Boy

[Verse 1]

Girl, I would dial your number without lookin'

And  you’d always pick it up as soon as it rang

And  I'd hear you say, "I hear my Mama coming"

And you'd hide the phone up underneath the sheets

[Chorus]

And I’d hear her say, "Girl, haven't I told you?

Yeah,  I know who you're talking to

It's  that bad boy

It's that wrong-side-of-the-tracks boy

That  break-your-heart-and-won't-come-back boy

Why's that boy the one you love?"

You're not that bad boy

[Verse 2]

You weren’t scared but you had every reason

Me  and my boys were nothin’ short of dangerous

But you said, "Boy, you know I've heard you talk to Jesus

How’s a tough guy like you afraid to love?"

[Chorus]

You ain't so bad boy

You've done some things you can't take back, boy

But I see straight through that boy

And that boy is the one I love

[Bridge]

You ain’t so bad boy

No, you ain't so bad

You ain't so bad

[Verse 3]

Well, I remember sitting down beside your Mama

My hands shaking in my pocket with that ring

She said, "Boy, I always knew you loved my daughter

She loves you too and I think I know what she sees"

So alright, bad boy

Long as them old habits don't come back, boy

You know that's how she lost her dad, boy

And that boy is the one I loved

He was my bad boy

He was my bad boy

[Outro]

Guess you ain't so bad

No, you ain't so bad
