Bad Boy

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 momma comin'

And you'd hide the phone up underneath the sheets

And I'd hear her say, girl, haven't I told you?

Yeah, I know who you're talkin' to

And 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

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 talked to Jesus

How's a tough guy like you afraid to love?

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's the one I love

And you ain't so bad boy

No, you ain't so bad

Ain't so bad

Well I remember sittin' down beside your momma

My hands shakin' 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

Yes, you ain't so bad

Yes, you ain't so bad, boy
