And my mother is standing beside me As I'm packing my bags in the car She says, "please, boy, no more fighting Oh, it's only gonna do you harm" But I can't help it, I don't know how I guess I'll always be hanging around with the wrong crowd I can't help it, I don't know how I guess I'll always be hanging around with the wrong crowd And my brother is standing behind me As I'm slowly going out my head He says, "you know those people don't like me Why'd you wanna be one of them?" But I can't help it, I don't know how I guess I'll always be hanging around with the wrong crowd I can't help it, I don't know how I guess I'll always be hanging around with the wrong crowd Oh, I wish I could find somebody Oh, that my mother would like Oh, I wish I can find somebody That could treat me right But I can't help it, I don't know how I guess I'll always be hanging around with the wrong crowd I can't help it, I don't know how I guess I'll always be hanging around with the wrong crowd Singing, I can't help it, I don't know how I guess I'll always be hanging around with the wrong crowd Singing, I can't help it, I don't know how I guess I'll always be hanging around with the wrong crowd I can't help it, I don't know how I guess I'll always be hanging around with the wrong crowd Singing, I can't help it, I don't know how I guess I'll always be hanging around with the wrong crowd
