Girl, you've never known no one like me Up there in your high society They might tell you I'm no good Girl they need to understand Just who I am I may be a real bad boy But baby I'm a real good man I may drink too much and play too loud Hang out with a rough and rowdy crowd That don't mean I don't respect My mama and my Uncle Sam Yes sir, yes ma'am I may be a real bad boy But baby I'm a real good man Might have a reckless streak At least a country mile wide If you're gonna run with me It's gonna be a wild ride When it comes to lovin' you I've got velvet hands I'll show you how a real bad boy Can be a real good man I'll take all the good times I can get I'm too young for growing up just yet Ain't much I can promise you Except to do the best I can I'll be damned I may be a real bad boy But baby I'm a real good man I may be a real bad boy But baby I'm a real good man
