Baby's bad news
And she couldn't be good
You know she's got a crooked take on romance
Yeah she may take your diamond pendant
But she'll pawn it when she gets the chance
If she leaves her man in misery
It ain't enough for her to just leave you see
She's got to rummage through his pockets
While he's sleeping and steal his car keys
JJust a modicum
Of good good lovin
Sure "˜nuff makes the knot less stubborn
Yeah, yeah, yeah
So when she's charmin "˜em
It's just for the money
I smell a dirty thief awww honey
Bad, ooh, bad
Baby's bad news
not just misunderstood
You know she always keeps a switchblade on hand
She keeps it her pocket book
And it ain't there for opening tin cans
If she tried to be good just for the week
there'd be no way that she could do it you see
I'd bet you half a million dollars
That a day would put her on her knees
On her knees
JJust a modicum
Of good good lovin
Sure "˜nuff makes the knot less stubborn
Yeah, yeah, yeah
So when she's charmin' "˜em
It's all for the money
I smell a dirty thief awww honey
Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad
Oh baby come on
Well you know your baby cheats
When she's sneakin' round the streets
On the runaround
Someone's tempting her with sweets
Sugar candy coated treats
When she's on the town
On the runaround
Though the doors are double locked
She's out trippin' "˜round the clock
w/ the midnight hounds
Someone put her on a leash
she's already out of reach
"˜cuz she's on the town
on the runaround
JJJJJust a modicum
Of good good lovin'
Sure nuff makes the knot less stubborn
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah she's just robbin' "˜em
It's all for the money
I caught a dirty thief, I saw you honey
Bad, oooh, bad, bad, bad bad bad
Oh baby come on
