This is a song about a bad girl Something that happened to me long time ago Everybody was telling me how the little girl was running around I had a head of my own And I just wouldn't listen to nobody My father he told me My mother sat down and cried Said son this woman will break your heart And then she'll put you down That's when I told mama these words Lord have mercy Baaaaaad girl mama Bad, bad girl Mama they call her bad girl All because she wanted to be free But i'm in love with the little girl And i believe that she loves me. What my heart feels My lips must confess So I will never let her alone I don't care if they call her bad Bad girl, mama Lord have mercy Bad, bad girl Love is a mystery Never can be explained by anything But i believe one of these days The whole world will understand What my heart feels My lips must confess So i will Never let that little girl alone I don't care if they call her bad Bad girl You better believe it, mama
