Jimmy B Bad lyrics

I was born in "Dirty Town", early heard the heavy sound

Of pounding drums and loud guitars on the radio

My mama always said to me "Boy it`s time for you to see

Life is work, in fourty years you`ll be a lucky man"



But I was smart and I qiut school, started smoking, breaking rules

Bought myself a use guitar in a "Second hand"

My clever brain said "Well Jimmy, you are born to be free

Let the others suck your dick, you`re gonna be a star"



Here I go, no more sorrows

Sex, drugs, rock`n`roll is all I want

I just piss on hell and heaven

Meet me on the road, let`s have some fun



Fame and money, chart-success, never had a shortage of

Girls, who scared the back of my Firebird T.

My manager just said to me "Boy it`s time for you to see

Crazy people don`t live long, learn self-control"



I drew my 45 and shot the bastard right between the eyes

They sentenced me to fourty years, but I didn`t care

My record company was quick and fired me, eat some shit

Are you gonna go my way or follow the blind



Here I go, no more sorrows

Sex, drugs, rock`n`roll is all I want

I just piss on hell and heaven

Meet me on the road, let`s have some fun



I ran away, escape the law, beware the lonesome rider

No home, no hope, no alcohol; I`m back on the streets

And then the devil said to me "Boy it`s time for you to see

That you`re doing well, on the highway to hell



The scales were falling from my eyes, I would have to change my life

Now I understood and knew what to do

I cut my hair and bought myself a noble suit and silken tie

And all the things I did before are legal and okay



Here I go, no more sorrows

Sex, drugs, rock`n`roll is all I want

I just piss on hell and heaven

Meet me on the road, let`s have some fun
