BAD BOY
(Avon Long - Lillian Hardin Armstrong)
THE JIVE BOMBERS (SAVOY 1508, 1956)

I'm just a bad boy (la-la-la-la)
All dressed up in fancy clothes
I'm taking the trouble
To blow my bubbles away

Bad boy (la-la-la-la)
Life is just a bowl of cherries
I'm taking the trouble
To turn my nights into day

The hot blazing sun
Won't hurt my head
'Cause you'll always find me
Right there in the shade
I can see all the folks
They're laughing at me
'Cause I'm just naturally crazy

Bad boy (la-la-la-la)
All dressed up in fancy clothes
I'm taking the trouble
To blow my bubbles away

The hot blazing sun
Won't hurt my head
'Cause you'll always find me
Right there in the shade
I can see all the folks
They're laughing at me
'Cause I'm just naturally lazy, crazy

Bad boy (la-la-la-la)
All dressed up in fancy clothes
I'm taking the trouble
To blow my bubbles away
