They never came to town
He really gets me down
Take off that plastic Crown
Coke nose and a pretty sound
Alright make it quick
Good songs make you rich
That feelin' it'll pass
Good boys come in last
Bad Girl by my side poppin' pills on the fly
Don't breathe when I die
I came by to see
I just had to know
Who put the body in the bayou
Who left the tracks on the road
Told me act your age
That's why she's underage
Said her papa hates the Federal Aids and
When he drinks too much he smacks her face
Alright make it quick
Good songs make you rich
That feelin' it'll pass
Good boys come in last
Bad Girl by my side poppin' pills on the fly
Don't breathe when I die
I came by to see
I just had to know
Who put the body in the bayou
Who left the tracks on the road
I came by to see
I just had to know
Who put the body in the bayou
Who left the tracks on the road
