The Bag Lady

Bad To The Bone

On the day I was born
The nurses all gathered ’round
And they gazed in wide wonder
At the joy they had found
The head nurse spoke up
Said, “Leave this one alone”
She could tell right away
That I was bad to the bone

Bad to the bone
Bad to the bone
B-B-B-B-Bad 
B-B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-B-Bad
Bad to the bone

I broke a thousand hearts
Before I met you
I’ll break a thousand more, baby
Before I am through
I wanna be yours, pretty baby
Yours and yours alone
I’m here to tell ya, honey
That I’m bad to the bone

Bad to the bone
B-B-B-B-Bad 
B-B-B-B-Bad 
B-B-B-B-Bad 
Bad to the bone

I’ll make a rich woman beg
And I’ll make a good woman steal
I’ll make an old woman blush
And I’ll make a young girl squeal
I wanna be yours, pretty baby
Yours and yours alone
I’m here to tell ya, honey
That I’m bad to the bone

B-B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-B-Bad
Bad to the bone

Now when I walk the streets
Kings and queens step aside
Every woman I meet
They all stay satisfied
I wanna tell ya, pretty baby
What I see I make my own
And I’m here to tell ya, honey
That I’m bad to the bone

Bad to the bone
B-B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-B-Bad 
B-B-B-B-Bad 
Woo, bad to the bone

It was no surprise to him as he watched her glide down the staircase in that dominating red gown. She had achieved her goal, all eyes glued to the plunging neckline of the garment and then rising upward to the pallid face engulfed in glossy black curls. She was living the part she had always wanted—to be the center of everyone’s vision, if only for one night.

He slowly advanced to the stairs and held out his hand. He had to admit she looked spectacular and she was, as promised, now his. Money was all it took, lots of money, and of course…his magic.

You know how you hear the first notes of a classic song and know the words instantly? I was looking at rock songs that had cool beginnings and am sharing this one😀

“Long Cool Woman (In A Black Dress)”

Saturday night I was downtown
Working for the FBI
Sittin’ in a nest of bad men
Whiskey bottles piling high

Bootlegging boozer on the west side
Full of people who are doing wrong
Just about to call up the DA man
When I heard this woman sing a song

A pair of 45’s made me open my eyes
My temperature started to rise
She was a long cool woman in a black dress
Just-a 5’9, beautiful, tall
With just one look I was a bad mess
‘Cause that long cool woman had it all

[Instrumental Interlude]

I saw her heading to the table
Like a tall walking big black cat
When Charlie said I hope that you’re able boy
‘Cause I’m telling you she knows where it’s at
Then suddenly we heard the sirens
And everybody started to run
A-jumping out of doors and tables
When I heard somebody shootin’ a gun
Well the DA was pumping my left hand

And a-she was a-holding my right
Well I told her don’t get scared
‘Cause you’re gonna be spared
I’ve gotta be forgivin’ if I wanna spend my living
With a long cool woman in a black dress
Just a 5’9 beautiful tall
Yeah, with just one look I was a bad mess
‘Cause that long cool woman had it all
Had it all
Had it alle

Of course everyone wants this gift, even the hardened egotistical misogynistic racist pompous people who try to rule the world. They all still want this gift. I was lucky to have met the love of my life early on and have three children and now grandchildren and a great grandchild. You are probably bored by my repeating these facts but these are gifts of my life. My new year’s wish is that each of you will have the same.

If your aim is to mandate a penalty on the reliance of this advertisement, I don’t think you should rely on the scrutiny of the advertising industry. Their intricate rules are quite the web of deceit and even a hungry spider would not find them esculent.
