Lyrics

She's got a nasty reputation
And a talent for sin
She's the kinda trouble I like to be in
I wanna be her lover, I wanna be her slave
She's the kinda woman, makes me wanna misbehave
She says, "I'll give you what you want, boy, but let's make it understood
If you wanna be bad, you gotta be good."

"There'll be no lying, no fooling around
No seven-day weekends, no nights on the town
That's the way I want it, that's the way it's gotta be
If you're looking for trouble, better get it from me
Now get down on your knees, boy, and do what you should
If you wanna be bad, you gotta be good..."
