Country rock, with some blues, and old time country, and classic rock.
I am a retired roofer. I played in a band in New York in the 60s and 70s, we did very small gigs, parties, weddings etc. I have always loved music.
Story behind the song
A man gets down sometimes, he needs to get back up. When he does he tells all the bad that he used to do, and wants to have a woman to love.
Lyrics
I'm bad, remember I'm dust. I can't resist temptation, I'm subject for lust.
I lose my inhibitions, when I drink too much.
I get mean and wanna fight, whenever Im drunk.
Still I gotta tell you baby, Im a much, much better man
Than I used to be.Yeah
I live in an old run down shack, on the bad side of town.
I know all these questionable women, out here on the street walkin round.
I been arrested a number a times, over drug deals goin down.
I was voted the most likely in high school, to be prison bound.
Still I gotta tell you baby, I could be a much better man,
If youd just pay a little attention to me.Well
I'm bad, remember I'm dust, I can't resist temptation, I'm subject for lust.
The policemen down at the prescient, they all know me.
They got a cell down at the jailhouse, its named after me.
Still I gotta tell you baby, I could be a much, much better man, if youd marry me.
Yeah-ah-ah
I'm bad
