Irving Berlin - I'm A Bad Bad Man Lyrics
FRANK:]I'm honored, I'm flattered, this greeting really matteredThis welcome is grand but I'm really concernedI like your attention, but this I have to mentionYou're playing with fire and you're apt to get burnedThere's a girl in TennesseeWho's sorry she met up with meCan't go back to TennesseeI'm a bad, bad manThere's a girl in OmahaBut I ran faster than her paCan't go back to OmahaI'm a bad, bad manThere's a girl in Wyoming and they're combing WyomingTo find the man in white who was out with her that nightThere's a girl in ArkansasThe sheriff is her brother-in-lawCan't go back to ArkansasI'm a bad, bad man[GIRLS:]You're making too much fussFor we don't give a tinker's cussWe've been out, yes, each of usWith a bad, bad manWe've been chasing up and downThat other show has just left townAnd the one who played the clownWas a bad, bad manYou may love us and leave us, but the parting won't grieve usWe'll turn the other cheek when the minstrels come next weekWhen the show folks come to callA girl may slip but she won't fallWe'll give some but won't give allTo a bad, bad man[FRANK:]For years I have yearned to play towns I could return toAnd "this may be it" from the way that you speakI'm glad you're not frightened, the atmosphere has brightenedAnd now let's make plans for a wonderful weekMonday when my show is doneI'll teach you how to shoot a gunYou may find it lots of funWith a bad, bad manTuesday there's no matineeBut I'll be in my tent all dayYou can come around and playWith a bad, bad manSend your mothers on Wednesday because Wednesday's old hens' dayBut Thursday is sublime, I'll have lots of open timeFriday night will be the testIf Saturday you're still my guestSunday you can come and restWith a bad, bad man
