Rude Boys Outta Jail
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.
Rude boys outta jail!
Rude boys outta jail!
Rude boys out on bail!
Rude boys outta jail!
They mess around in every town
But now they've learned the rules
They used to be rough,
They used to be tough
But now they're keeping cool
They don't fight, they look just right
In their tonics and button downs
If you see them around,
Don't put them down
They're the coolest guys in town
Rude boys outta jail!
Rude boys outta jail!
Rude boys out on bail!
Rude boys outta jail!
They mess around in every town
But now they've learned the rules
They used to be rough,
They used to be tough
But now they're keeping their cool
