Bad Man - Emitt Rhodes[00:00:00]
Felt unwanted and rejected as a child[00:00:04]
Was always evil talking dirty and running wild[00:00:10]
Caught red-handed thieving hubcaps as a teen[00:00:17]
Judge was lenient when you told him you'd go clean[00:00:22]
One year's probation just added to your frustration[00:00:29]
But a bad man's gotta pay once in a while[00:00:35]
Did your utmost to perfect the perfect crime[00:00:41]
Was apprehended in the phone booth stealing dimes[00:00:46]
Tried a thousand schemes and nothing made you rich[00:00:54]
Well every endeavor never fails to have a hitch[00:00:59]
Here's the place be quick it's time to face the music[00:01:06]
Cause the bad man's gotta steal to stay alive[00:01:12]
Now you're low and low is wearing mighty thin[00:01:19]
Yes you're low you're high and then you're low again[00:01:28]
You have precisely half a dozen phony names[00:01:42]
You've got no mercy and Lord knows you got no shame[00:01:48]
There's no one home now can't you see the house is dark[00:01:55]
Driveway's empty where a car is usually parked[00:02:00]
Now's the time to go through any unlocked window[00:02:08]
Cause a bad man's gotta earn a living too[00:02:13]
Now you're down and down and down is where they have you pinned[00:02:20]
Yes you're down you're up and then you're down again[00:02:30]
