Bad is Bad [Live at 25]
[Intro]
You know, cool is a rule
But sometimes bad is bad, baby
(Ah-dit-dit-dit-dit-dit
Doo-wop
Ah-dit-dit-dit-dit-dit
Doo-wop
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Ah-dit-dit-dit-dit-dit
Doo-wop
Are you with me this evening?
Ah-dit-dit-dit-dit-dit
Doo-wop
Ah-dit-dit-dit-dit-dit)
[Verse 1]
Went uptown
To see my cousin
Play his guitar
Sounds like a chainsaw buzzin'
In the crowd
I see his mom and his dad
I say, "Hey, hey, uncle
Man, your son is bad"
[Chorus 1]
Sometimes (sometimes)
Sometimes bad is bad
(Aah, dit, dit, dit, dit, dit
Doo wop, wop)
That ain’t good
I say cool is a rule
Sometimes bad is bad
(Aah, dit, dit, dit, dit, dit)
Now check this out
[Verse 2]
Across the street
A neon sign
All you can eat for
Five ninety nine
Our soul stew
Is the baddest in the land
But-a two dollar's worth
Was all that I could stand
[Chorus 2]
Sometimes (Sometimes)
Sometimes bad is bad
(Aah, dit, dit, dit, dit, dit
Doo wop, wop)
I say cool is a rulе
Sometimes bad is bad
(Aah, dit, dit, dit, dit, dit)
Come hеre, harmonica
[Harmonica solo]
(Aah-dit-dit-dit-dit-dit-dit
Aah-dit-dit-dit-dit-dit-dit
Aah-dit-dit-dit-dit-dit-dit
Aah-dit-dit-dit-dit-dit-dit
Oooh, aah-dit-dit-dit-dit-dit-dit)
[Verse 3]
Back uptown
To see Marie
Nobody home
I opened the door with my key
"I love you, Huey"
Was the note I read
But there's a strange pair of shoes
Where?
Underneath the bed
[Chorus 3]
Sometimes
Sometimes bad is bad
(Aah, dit, dit, dit, dit, dit
Doo wop, wop)
I say cool is a rule
Sometimes, bad is bad
(Aah, dit, dit, dit, dit, dit
Doo wop, wop)
I say cool is a rule
Sometimes, bad is bad
(Aah, dit, dit, dit, dit, dit
Doo wop, wop)
I say cool is a rule
Sometimes bad is bad
Mmm
