The Jive Bombers were an American R&B group from New York City. The Jive Bombers consisted of members of two previous vocal groups, Sonny Austin & the Jive Bombers and The Palmer Brothers.

I'm just a bad boy,  (boy)
All dressed up in fancy clothes
I'm takin' the trouble
To blow my bubbles away

Bad boy  (boy)
Life is just a bowl of cherries
I'm takin' the trouble
To turn my nights into days

	The hot, blazin' sun (doo-doo, doo-doo) 
Won't hurt my head (doo-doo, doo-doo)
	'cause you'll always find me (doo-doo, doo-doo) 
Right there in the shade (doo-doo, doo-doo)
I can see all the folks (doo-doo, doo-doo)
They're laughin' at me (doo-doo, doo-doo)
	'cause I'm just naturally crazy

Bad boy  (boy)
All dressed up in fancy clothes
I'm takin' the trouble
To blow my bubbles away

All dressed up in fancy clothes

To blow my bubbles away
