I Used to Be Bad

Well I used to be bad

I done changed my ways

But the people still remember me

From the good old days

When I was bad

Tell y'all I was bad

Don't blame my mom

Don't blame my dad

I choose to be bad

Well I was into violence

I was into crime

I'd cut you for a nickel

I'd shoot you for a dime

'Cause I was bad

Tell y'all I was bad

Don't blame my mom

Don't blame my dad

I choose to be bad

Well I went to the church

Fell on my knees

Lord I'm so sorry

Forgive me please

'Cause I was bad

Tell y'all I was bad

Don't blame my mom

Don't blame my dad

I choose to be bad

Well I met a sweet little honey

Settled down

I stopped being bad

Stopped fooling around

And I was bad

Tell y'all I was bad

Don't blame my mom

Don't blame my dad

Oh I was a juvenile delinquent

I didn't have no sense

I was gonna go where I had to go
