The Girl’s Gone Bad Lyrics by FM

Takin’ It to the Streets

1991

Ooh...
Alright

I was minding my own business on a lazy afternoon
Watching the world go by
When a vision from the past came from out of nowhere
Shook me up, took me by surprise
She was dressed to kill, she knew I was sold
Had to pull myself together, pick myself up off the floor
Just a small town girl when she went away
Now she's back in town, I've got to say

The girl's gone bad, she's breaking all the rules
But I know it turns her on, hey
The girl's gone bad, there's nothing I can do
When I woke up this morning
She was long, long, long, long gone
Hey, my baby's gone, oh, yeah

She must've slipped out of the back door
In the early morning light
How did I ever let that woman steal away
I should've seen it coming, I must've been blind
'Cos she said she'd get me back one day
She made promises that she couldn't keep
And laid it out on the table, she left a note for me
Just a small town girl when she went away
Now she's all grown up, I've got to say

The girl's gone bad, she's breaking all the rules
But I know it turns her on
The girl's gone bad, there's nothing I can do
When I woke up this morning, she was long, long gone

Get on up
I said get on up
Oh!

The girl's gone bad, she's breaking all the rules
But I know it turns her on, hey
The girl's gone bad, there's nothing I can do
When I woke up this morning
She was long, long, long, long, long gone

The girl's gone bad, she's breaking all the rules
But I know it turns her on, ooh...
The girl's gone bad, there's nothing I can do
When I woke up this morning
She was long, long, long, long gone

My baby's gone
Oh, yeah
Oh, yeah
