They stole our hit I never thought
You got me to think for you now
I've tried to make good without much success
You've got me to think for you now
Every time I try for more I wind up with less
You gotta put your soul on a moral break
Get to the point you just gotta take
Steppin' to the bad side ooh ooh ooh
Gonna take a mean ride
The smile I had is gone away
Those that steal are gonna pay
Steppin' to the bad side today
Steppin' to the bad side ooh ooh ooh
Gonna take a mean ride ooh ooh ooh
The smile I had is gone away
Those that steal are gonna pay
Steppin' to the bad side today
I tell you now it's got to end
No more trustin' them my friend
Change our style change our tone
Make the songs we sing our own
Steppin' to the bad side ooh ooh ooh
Gonna take a mean ride ooh ooh ooh
I got you all the breaks you need
In just two years we'll be in the lead
Just sit back it's plain to see
Open your eyes and trust in me
Steppin' to the bad side ooh ooh ooh
Gonna take a mean ride ooh ooh ooh
I was a man who tried to be good
I was always misunderstood
I played fair I played too meek
You gotta get way down and show your danger streak
Steppin' to the bad side ooh ooh ooh
Gonna take a mean ride ooh ooh ooh
Steppin'
Steppin'
Steppin'
Step step step step
Steppin' to the bad side
Steppin' to the bad side
Steppin' to the bad side
Steppin' to the bad side
Steppin' to the bad side
Steppin' to the bad side
Steppin' to the bad side
Steppin' to the bad side
Steppin' to the bad side
I had to step into the bad side
Ooh ooh ooh
I had to take myself a mean ride
Ooh ooh ooh
Oh you know that smile I had is gone away
Those that steal are gonna pay
Steppin' to the bad side today
Man just stole my woman from me
Her took her down to tennessee
She was the best girl I ever knew
If it wasn't for him she'd still be true
Always been a good man it's been said
When I catch the man he wish he were dead
Men like him make good men mad
Startin' today I'm gonna be bad
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Steppin' to the bad side
Ooh ooh ooh
I had to take myself a mean ride
Ooh ooh ooh
Oh you know that smile I had is gone away
Those that steal are gonna pay
Steppin' to the bad side
Steppin' to the bad side
Steppin' to the bad side today
Step step to the bad side
Step step to the bad side
Step step to the bad side
Step step to the bad side
Step step to the bad side
Step step
Gotta step to the bad side
