Baby please don't get too close to me Cause that ring you're wearin' Says that you're not free But if I said I didn't want ya Well you know I'd be a liar You better run while there's still time Cause I can't stop this fire I want you bad I can't help myself But you belong to someone else I'd leave you alone, darling, if I could But I want you bad and that ain't good Baby please put away those ruby lips And those big blue eyes Are too hard to resist I'm not that kind of man Oh and usually I'm strong But it's gettin' hard to tell between What's right and what is wrong I want you bad I can't help myself, I want you bad girl that ain't good I want you bad bad bad that ain't good
