Bad To The Bone
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
On the day I was born
The nurses all gathered 'round
And they gazed in wide wonder
At the joy they had found
The head nurse spoke up
And she said leave this one alone
She could tell "right away"
That I was bad to the bone
Bad to the bone
B-B-B-B-Bad
Bad to the bone
I broke a thousand hearts
Before I met you
I'll break a thousand more, baby
Before I am through
I wanna be yours, pretty baby
Yours and yours alone
I'm here to tell ya, honey
That I'm bad to the bone
Bad to the bone
B-B-B-B-Bad (x3)
Bad to the bone
I make a rich woman beg
I'll make a good woman steal
I'll make an old woman blush
And make a young woman squeal
I wanna be yours, pretty baby
Yours and yours alone
I'm here to tell ya, honey
That I'm bad to the bone
B-B-B-B-Bad (x3)
Bad to the bone
Now when I walk the streets
Kings and queens step aside
Every woman I meet
They all stay satisfied
I wanna tell ya, pretty baby
What I see I make my own
And I'm here to tell ya, honey
That I'm bad to the bone
Bad to the bone
B-B-B-B-Bad (x3)
Bad to the bone
