Got a confession, I done learned my lessons
And I took some turns that were wrong
I used to have friends
But they stopped pretending
And now they're all up, left and gone
I tried to change, but the fact still remains
That I was born on a bad day
I should know better, and now that I met you
I hope I can alter my ways
But I've been a bad, bad man
I've been a bad, bad man
I've been a bad, bad man
I've been a bad, bad man
I went to church, but it made me feel worse
'Cause I know that I've done some wrong
'Cause I've been a bad, bad man
I've been a bad, bad man
Could tell you some stories
Your mouth'll fall from gory
And raise the hair on the back of your neck
I used the bottle to sink all my troubles
And hope that I don't recollect
But I found a change
And the fact still remains
That no one can change my past
Yeah, I will try better
'Cause now that I met you
I've got a second chance
But I've been a bad, bad man
I've been a bad, bad man
I've been a bad, bad man
I've been a bad, bad man
I went to church, but it made me feel worse
'Cause I know that I've done some wrong
'Cause I've been a bad, bad man
I've been a bad, bad man, ohhh, mmm
And there ain't a thing
That you don't know
Told you my darkest days
And you still got love to show
You see through me
And you still forgive
I know that I found the one
So I changed the way I lived
'Cause I was a bad, bad man
A bad, bad man
I hold up my hands
I'll change what I can
I went to church, but it made me feel worse
'Cause I know that I've done some wrong
'Cause I've been a bad, bad man
I've been a bad, bad man
