That don't make me a bad guy
Don't scar my resume
Don't you give me the black eye
Judging by my day to day

Easy to love and hard to keep
Let it dance on the wild side
I'm only good as I gotta be
Yeah, that don't make me a bad guy

Chiva whiskey in a paper cup
Catch a buzz and I sober up
Comin' down with a pot-a-joe
Sleep it off and away I go

Runnin' hard 'til the money's gone
Half a day and all night long
Get a girl with my romeo
Yeah, love a while then it's adios

That don't make me a bad guy
Don't scar my resume
Don't give me the black eye
Judging by my day to day

Easy to love and hard to keep
Let it dance on the wild side
I'm only good as I gotta be
That don't make me a bad guy

Yeah, like a man I go to work
Feel clean in my dirty shirt
Ain't got a lot but I really try
I've gotten good at gettin' by

And I'm a son of my daddy's name
Yeah, mama's proud and everythin'
When it's time to make some noise
Boys will be boys

That don't make me a bad guy
Don't scar my resume
Don't give me a black eye
Judging by my day to day

Easy to love and hard to keep
Let it dance on the wild side
I'm only good as I gotta be
That don't make me a bad guy

Villain or an outlaw, I might kiss your girl
Or catch you with a south paw, ain't dangerous
Cantankerous maybe, just lookin' for a real good time
Yeah, a real good time, yeah

That don't make me a bad guy
Don't scar my resume
Don't give me the black eye
Call me some kinda renegade

Easy to love and hard to keep
Let it dance on the wild side
I'm only good as I gotta be
That don't make me a bad guy

I'm only good as I gotta be
That don't make me a bad guy, oh yeah

I stopped in Thibodeaux, Roadhouse in Louisiana
I wasn't stayin' long, I was a wanted man
The air was thick with danger, I watched the vixens dance
My six gun in my pocket, my pistol in my pants

I let her walk upon me, she pinned me to the door
She said she swore she knew me, we'd never met before
She pressed up hard against me, I stared into her eyes
She grabbed my face and kissed me, she had me hypnotized

I'm runnin' down the road, can't find the interstate
It's like I'm bein' followed and I can't get away
The snakes and alligators, they whisper in the wind
I hear her callin' to me, I turn around again
Cry of a creole woman, woke up the devil down in me

She took me to her bedroom, smelled like a cheap hotel
Never had a Cajun queen, I'm used to Southern belles
But through the smoky billows of my tobacco leaves
I watched her in the mirror as she was lovin' me

I'm runnin' down the road, can't find the interstate
It's like I'm bein' followed and I can't get away
The snakes and alligators, they whisper in the wind
I hear her callin' to me, I turn around again
Cry of a creole woman, woke up the devil down in me

What's this, you wicked woman, some kind of voodoo game?
Hell I haven't slept since Thursday, don't even know your name
This spell you got me under, got just one remedy
Just like a poison potion, that goes down smooth and sweet

I'm runnin' down the road, can't find the interstate
It's like I'm bein' followed and I can't get away
The snakes and alligators, they whisper in the wind
I hear her callin' to me, I turn around again
Cry of a creole woman, yeah, the cry of a creole woman
Woke up the devil down in me

. . .


Just a girl born in Dixie
washed in the blood
and raised on the banks
of the Mississippi mud
She always had a thing
about fallin' in love with a bad boy

Yea, they could see it all comin'
but her daddy never dreamed
she'd grow up that fast
you know what I mean
The way a girl gets
when she turns 17
Kinda crazy

She's a rebel child
and a preacher's daughter
She was baptized in dirty water
Her mama cried the first time
they caught her with me
They knew they couldn't stop her

She holds tight to me and the Bible
on the back seat of my motercycle
Left her daddy standin' there
preachin' to the choir
You see...God love her
Oh me and God love her

She kissed her mama goodbye
said I'll be sure 'n phone ya
She called from a truck stop
in Tucson Arizona
With amazing grace
we made California line
And then my gypsy life
started takin' it's toll
and the fast lane got empty
and out of control
And just like an angel
she saved my soul from the devil

Yea she's a rebel child
and a preacher's daughter
She was baptized in dirty water
Her mama cried the first time
they caught her with me
They knew they couldn't stop her

She holds tight to me and the Bible
on the back seat of my motercycle
Left her daddy standin' there
preachin' to the choir
You see....God love her
oh me and God love her

Now she holds tight to me and the Bible
on the back seat of my motercycle
Left her daddy standin' there
preachin' to the choir
You see...God love her
Oh me and God love her
God love her
Me and God love her

. . .


Maybe you were right
Maybe I could have changed
Sittin' here alone tonight
Thinkin' 'bout a lot of things

What's a man to say
When all the questions start
Hell I know deep down
Inside my broken heart

Could've tried just a little bit harder
Kissed you just a little bit sweeter
Held on just a little bit longer
Dug down just a little bit deeper

Let the world revolve around you
And given you the stars above
Loved you just enough to make you stay
And I'd have lost you anyway

I hate it when it's like this
Baby, it's like that now
Nothing I can say to you
You even care to talk about

How you gonna dress it up
Wrap it in a pretty bow
When it's gone, it's gone for good
Baby, at least I know

Could've tried just a little bit harder
Kissed you just a little bit sweeter
Held on just a little bit longer
Dug down just a little bit deeper

Let the world revolve around you
And given you the stars above
Loved you just enough to make you stay
And I'd have lost you anyway

Oh, let the world revolve around you
And given you the stars above
Loved you just enough to make you stay
And I'd have lost you anyway, I'd have lost you anyway
I'd have lost you anyway, I'd have lost you anyway

. . .


Midnight in the desert and so far away
Finger nail moon dancin' through the Milky Way
And stars down in Dixie look the same way here
And I got your picture stuck down in my battle gear

Oh, I can sing that song, you know the one that drives you wild
And close my eyes and dream but I can't kiss my baby's smile
Even the man in the moon is singin' the blues
Hope you still love me baby, I'm missin' me some you

When your head hits the pillow, would you pray for my soul?
That's when your little soldier goes out on patrol
Never thought when I kissed you goodbye in Tennessee
That I'd ever be lonely, I'm about as lonely as one man can be

I can sing that song, you know the one that drives you wild
I can close my eyes and dream but I can't kiss my baby's smile
Even the man in the moon is singin' the blues
Hope you still love me baby, I'm missin' me some you
I miss you, baby

I can sing that song, you know the one that drives you wild
I can close my eyes and dream but I can't kiss my baby's smile
Even the man in the moon is singin' the blues
Hope you still love me baby, cause I'm missin' me some you
Oh, I hope you still love me baby, 'cause I'm missin' me some you, yeah

. . .


Go on and call me up
Tell me you made a grave mistake
You know I never once turned you away

Bad as I hate to say
I know how good it's gonna be
If just for a night, I lay you down by me

And you lie
Like you won't say goodbye
Like you do every time

Come here and kiss me
And act like you miss me
Make me believe we're together

Come here and hold me
And baby, control me
Touch me like you'll be here forever

You never cut me deep enough to tell you no
Oh oh, tell me you love me
It'll hurt a lot worse when you go

I'm not what you want
No, I'm not ever gonna be
More than someone you come to in need

And you lie
Like you won't say goodbye
Like you do every time

Come here and kiss me
And act like you miss me
Make me believe we're together

Come here and hold me
And baby, control me
Touch me like you'll be here forever

You never cut me deep enough to tell you no
Oh oh, so tell me you love me
It'll hurt a lot worse when you go

You never cut me deep enough to tell you no
Oh oh, so tell me you love me
It'll hurt a lot worse when you go

Girl, tell me you love me
It'll hurt a lot worse when you go

. . .


Forget about my crazy days
Forget about my checkered past
What's all this interrogatin'?
Baby, forget about that

You don't wanna ask no questions
You don't know the answers too
You might wish that I was lying
Once you heard the brutal truth
I can think a thousand things I'd rather do with you

In the time that it would take me to explain the way I am
Honey, I could be well on my way to bein' your new man
We could waste the day away diggin' up my buried bones
You could turn it up and shake it, shake it all night long

I could rationalize and apologize
And justify my way right in your door
But in the time that it would take me to tell you where I've been
Honey, I could take you places you ain't never been before

Yeah come on girl, now don't you judge me
Come on girl, cut me some slack
Once I get you where I'm goin'
Baby, you'll come on back

You and me are gas and matches
You and me could take this town
Light it up and get her smokin'
You and me could burn it down
You could get all hung up on
How much I've been around

In the time that it would take me to explain the way I am
Honey, I could be well on my way to bein' your new man
We could waste the day away diggin' up my buried bones
You could turn it up and shake it, shake it all night long

I could rationalize and apologize
And justify my way right in your door
But in the time that it would take me to tell you where I've been
Honey, I could take you places you ain't never been before

Yeah, in the time that it would take me to explain the way I am
I could be well on my way to bein' your new man
We could waste the day away diggin' up my buried bones
You could turn it up and shake it, shake it all night long

I could rationalize and apologize
And justify my way right in your door
But in the time that it would take me to tell you where I've been
Honey, I could take you places you ain't never been before

. . .


Yeah, me and Bobby P stayed out all night
Kickin' it and cuttin' up and gettin' right
I had a good time till I came crawlin' in 'bout daylight
And you were bawlin'

And remember that time I took your car
You told me not to drive it but my truck wouldn't start
I had to leave it parked, it got a whiskey dent
Down at the handlebar where I swore I never went, darlin'

You get mad sometimes
I drive you right out of your mind
I don't mean to make you crazy

I'm not the devil, just a dude
Baby girl, I know that you
Could do better than me maybe
But it's too late, you already love me
Yeah, it's too late, you already love me

Starch my shirt and you press my pants
Met your boss at your Christmas dance
In a suit and tie, I wore my boots and jeans
And when he rolled his eyes, girl, I caused a scene, baby

You get mad sometimes
I drive you right out of your mind
I don't mean to make you crazy

I'm not the devil, just a dude
Baby girl, I know that you
Could do better than me maybe
But it's too late, you already love me
Yeah, it's too late, you already love me

No, I'm not the devil, just a dude
Baby girl, I know that you
Could do better than me maybe
But it's too late, you already love me
Yeah, it's too late, you already love me

You already love me
Well, it's too late, you already love me
Already love me
Yeah, it's too late, you already love me

. . .


Seven thirty-five
She's someone else's wife
I can get on with my life
And that thrills me

She married him today
Her daddy gave the bride away
I heard a tear roll down her face
And that kills me

‘Cause now I
Can see why
She's finally cryin'

How was I suppose to know
She was slowly lettin' go
If I was puttin' her through hell
Hell I couldn't tell
She could've given me a sign
And opened up my eyes
How was I supposed to see
She never cried in front of me

Yeah maybe I might've changed
It's hard for me to say
But the story's still the same
And it's a sad one
And I'll always believe
If she ever did cry for me
There were tears that you can't see
You know the bad ones

And now I
Can see why
She's finally cryin'

How was I suppose to know
She was slowly lettin' go
If I was puttin' her through hell
Hell I couldn't tell
She could've given me a sign
And opened up my eyes
How was I supposed to see
She never cried in front of me

With out a doubt
I know now
How it outta be
Now she's gone
And it's wrong
And it bothers me
Tomorrow I'll still be
Askin myself

How was I suppose to know
She was slowly lettin' go
If I was puttin' her through hell
Hell I couldn't tell
She could've given me a sign
And opened up my eyes
How was I supposed to see

How was I supposed to see
She never cried in front of me
Hell I couldn't tell

. . .


Girl, last time you saw me I wasn't this cool
And I'm hangin' out in Mexico down by the pool
In Cabo, Cabo San Lucas
If I send you a ticket, would you fly in?
Sure like to see you, we could hook up again
In Cabo, Cabo San Lucas

And I know it sounds crazy, but I bought a guitar
And I'm singin' my songs downtown in a bar
You can come with a friend, you can come by yourself
You can sleep here with me, I ain't got nobody else
In Cabo, Cabo San Lucas

Well, the Baja gets hot this time of year
And except for the fisherman, they all disappear
In Cabo, Cabo San Lucas
Pacifico is great, tequila is too
I got it all goin', but I ain't got you
In Cabo, Cabo San Lucas

And I know it sounds crazy, but I bought a guitar
And I'm singin' my songs downtown in a bar
You can come with a friend, you can come by yourself
You can sleep here with me, I ain't got nobody else
In Cabo, Cabo San Lucas

Oh, I'll show you the stars and the moon on the sea of Cortez
And the beach at San Juan, as the sun's sinkin' down in the west
I'm leavin' you this message and if you give a damn
And you wanna call me you know where I am
In Cabo, Cabo San Lucas
Way down in Mexico, way down in Cabo

. . .


Come on baby, lay back down
You don't have to leave right now
Anything you got downtown can wait
I love those high heel shoes
Everything looks good on you
You make it look brand new everyday

I've got it in a bad way
I wanna kiss your sweet face
And lay like this forever
I need you to need me
Complete my world
I got it for you, girl

Baby, I can hear your breath
Whisper softly on my chest
And I can feel your sweat all over me
The sheets stuck to your skin
You give me that want to grin
Baby, I want to again

I've got it in a bad way
I wanna kiss your sweet face
And lay like this forever
I need you to need me
Complete my world
I got it for you, girl

Everything you dreamed of
Just lay right here and sleep on
Never gonna have to want again
I got it for you, girl

Oh, I need you to need me
Complete my world
I got it for you
Wanna give it to you
I got it for you, girl
