Bad Girl Lyrics

A new bad girl, who get 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 everythings 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 th cafe
That's when I seen her, a'walkin my way
She's all dolled up, in her waitress' skirt
I said c'mon, dont 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 youre bad
But dont ya know, it just make me glad
When everybodys 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
Bad Girl

The New York Dolls are a rock group formed in New York City in 1971, now famous as a protopunk band. Though they found limited success during their initial run, the New York Dolls prefigured much of what was to come in the punk rock era, particularly among other NYC bands such as the Ramones. And, even later; the Dolls' over-the-top crossdressing and sexual tone influenced the look of many glam metal groups, especially that of early Mötley Crüe and Poison, and their shambling and sloppy but highly energetic playing style set the tone for many later rock n roll bands.

Their self-titled album was an underground sensation, particularly with smooth 70s easy listening ruling the airwaves back then. Chrissie Hynde once commented that every punk band ("And I knew them all") had both New York Dolls albums, illustrating the Dolls' influence. Still, the original line-up experienced many problems, particularly with the mainstream record industry that didn't know what to do with the wild group. Upon their break-up, frontman David Johansen had a moderately successful solo career.

In 2004, the three surviving members reunited for some sporadic touring. In 2006, now down to two surviving members, the band released a new album, 'One Day It Will Please Us to Remember Even This'. Two albums followed after this: 'Cause I Sez So', in 2009, followed up by a revamped lineup for 2011's 'Dancing Backward in High Heels'.
