Down on Lover's Lane, about ten years ago
I was looking for a thing I didn't know
I asked a friend about it, he said, "You must be strained"
You say you know about it, but by a different name
It's just a bad (bad) word (word)
For a good (good) thing
It's just a bad (bad) word (word)
For a good (good) thing
For a good, good thing
Saw the fortune teller up on Fourth and Vine
She wouldn't sell me the love potion number nine
Went to see the gypsy, had my fortune read
She looked into her crystal ball and this is what she said
I see a bad (bad) word (word)
For a good (good) thing
I see a bad (bad) word (word)
For a good (good) thing
For a good, good thing
Climb the highest mountain, walk the wildest street
Won't somebody tell me? Can't somebody see?
Go into the valley, go into the swamp
Won't somebody tell me where I can get me some?
I need a bad (bad) word (word)
For a good (good) thing
I need a bad (bad) word (word)
For a good (good) thing
For a good, good thing (bad, bad word)
For a good thing, baby (bad, bad word)
For a good thing, yeah (bad, bad word)
For a good thing, baby (bad, bad word)
For a good thing, yeah (bad, bad word)
For a good thing, baby (bad, bad word)
For a good thing, yeah (bad, bad word)
For a good thing, baby (bad, bad word)
Yeah
