A new bad girl, who got on my block
I gave her my keys, said don't bother to knock
I said c'mon, ya got what I need
I said come on, don't make my heart bleed

(I'm beggin')
Whoah bad girl, whatcha tryin' to do
What is the matter with you
Bad girl what are you tryin' to do

Cus I'm early in the morning, not too late at night
And you're tryin' to tell me everything's alright
Then you're gonna ask am I gonna take it slow
I said don't you worry there's no place to go
(My bad girl)

I'm walkin' to the corner, to go in the cafe
That's when I seen her, a'walkin' my way
She's all dolled up, in her waitress' skirt
I said c'mon, don't make my heart hurt

(I'm beggin')
Whoah bad girl, whatcha tryin' to do
What is the matter with you
Bad girl what are you tryin' to do

With my twenty dollar bills, and you can keep the change
All you gotta do is get down in my range
If you're gonna ask me am I gonna take it slow
I said don't you worry there's no place I gotta go

(You're bad, bad, so bad)

(I'm beggin')
Whoah bad girl, whatcha tryin' to do
What is the matter with you
Bad girl what are you tryin' to do

I'm beggin please little lover, stop this carryin' on
Gotta get some lovin' before the planet is gone
If you're gonna ask me, am I gonna take ya home
I says dontcha worry, there's no place I gotta go
(My bad girl...)

Hey bad girl, I know why you're bad
But don't ya know, it just make me glad
When everybody's gonna put you down
Lookin' for your friends, I'll be around

(I'm beggin')
Whoah bad girl, whatcha tryin' to do
What is the matter with you
Bad girl what are you tryin' to do

I'm beggin' please little lover, stop this carryin' on
Gotta get some lovin' before the planet is gone
A nuclear bomb, come an' blow us all away
Come on bad girl give me some lovin' today

Right here
Right now
