Another Bad Apple

Granddaddy was a gambler
Never ever seemed to win
Made a bad bet with the wrong man
We never saw Granddaddy again
Then Granny ran off with a grifter
She didn't even leave a note
Them kids had to raise each other
And that's about all she wrote

That's why Mama ain't gonna quit drinkin'
Brother gonna always be broke
Sister won't ever do nothing
Cause she's too damn high on dope
I ain't judging nobody
Naw it ain't much better for me
I'm just another bad Apple
That didn't fall far from the tree

Mama walks around in her bathrobe
Suckin Stoli down all day
Brother run down to the dog track
To throw a welfare check away
Sister's on her back in the Bowery
Just enough to get her fix
She couldn't earn it turnin tables
So she turned to turnin tricks

That's why mama ain't gonna quit drinkin'
Brother gonna always be broke
Sister won't ever do nothing
Cause she's too damn high on dope
I ain't judging nobody
Naw it ain't much better for me
I'm just another bad Apple
That didn't fall far from the tree

That's why Mama ain't gonna quit drinkin'
Brother gonna always be broke
Sister won't ever do nothing
Cause she's too damn high on dope
I ain't judging nobody
Naw it ain't much better for me
I'm just another bad Apple
That didn't fall far from the tree
I'm just another bad apple
That didn't fall far from the tree
