Bad boys

I met a lady dressed in black

She sure looked strange to me

I said, baby where's a hot place to go

She said Ruby's ain't for me

I said, mama I can go anywhere I please

I been to places that would bring the devil to his knees

She just looked at me and said

Don't go where the bad boys go

If you can't fight

Don't go where the bad boys go

When it's late at night

She looked at me with her coal black eyes

As she took me by the hand

She said Ruby's just ain't the place

You see it's more like another land

And as we stood outside the door

You could smell it in the air

You could hear the screams and feel the heat

But I really didn't care

She kept telling me

Don't go where the bad boys go

If you can't fight

Don't go where the bad boys go

When it's late at night

And as she pushed me through the door

The place was bright with flames

She said I tried to warn you boy

Cause Ruby is my name

I should have listened when she said

Don't go where the bad boys go

If you can't fight

Don't go where the bad boys go

When it's late at night

Don't go where the bad boys go

If you can't fight

Don't go where the bad boys go

When it's late at night

I don't wanna hear it again

Don't go where the bad boys go

If you can't fight

Don't go where the bad boys go

When it's late at night
