It's Bad
Composer(s): Lefty Frizzell - Abe Mulkey
Performer(s): Lefty Frizzell



Well you can't grow a crop when it's dew at the plow
You can't get milk from an old dry cow
You can't keep a woman if you don't know how
It's bad when it's that a way and it's bad a way now
My crop floated out, my old cow died, my sweet woman left, she was dis-satisfied
She broke my heart when she broke her vow
It's bad when it's that a way and it's bad a way now

If a man's got a woman to fix his meals 
He may make a living for workin' in the fields
He may be happy with the mule and plow
It's bad when it's that a way and it's bad a way now
Well I don't have a woman with love that's real 
I don't have money to pay my bills
I just got hreartaches and broken vows
It's bad when it's that a way and it's bad a way now
