John Lee Hooker - Half A Stranger Vol 1

Bad Boy

I used to be a bad boy, bad-boyin'
Don't have to be bad no more, oh well
I used to be a bad boy
Don't have to be bad no more
I learned my lesson a long time ago

Hm-mm, hm-mm, hm-hmm
Hm-mm, hm-mm, hm-hmm
Hm-mm, hm-mm, hm-hmm

My mother died, left me by myself
My mother died, oh well
She left me by myself
Well, well, well, oh well
Hm-mm, hm-mm, hm-hmm

Now I ain't got nobody
Sit down and talk to me
Oh, hm-mm, hm-mm, hm-hmm lawd, lawd
Lord, I'm by myself
My brother and my sister
Don't see no me, Lord no more
Hm-mm, hm-mm, hm-hmm
