Let's Be Bad
Leon Russell

Chorus: When we're feeling down and low

When our favorite word is no

Cause it points the way to go

Let's be bad

Who knows what will come tomorrow

Labor loose to sauce and sorrow

Here's some sugar you can borrow

Let's be bad

Don't wanna be boring

Our twenties are roaring

Let's manage the floor ring

Yeah drummer man

Do what you can

To wag the hoo will hit the fan

If you need some more enticing

Here's the girl with twice the spicing

We're the cake but she's the icing

Let's be bad

Let's be bad

Marilyn: If you say something is taboo

Well that's the thing I wanna do

Do it till we're black and blue

Let's be bad

Guns and gangsters suit me fine

Al Capone is a buddy of mine

He's my big shot valentine

Let's be bad

His spirits are saggin'

His feet are a draggin'

Fall off of that wagon

The piano hums to the bass and drums

And I'll be dancing when Hoover comes

Don't care if you've tied the knot

Most folks want what they ain't got

Melt the ice, some like it hot

Let's be bad

Here's my whistle make it wetter


Let me wear that scarlet letter

When I'm bad I'm even better

Let's be bad

Say bye bye propriety

No polite society

Give me notoriety

Let's be bad

Bring on the vices

Don't care what the price is

I'll add the right spices

When the stand up bass

Slaps you in the face

Well it ain't my husband I'll embrace

I can't see the use in waiting

Your lips are intoxicating

Do my hips need some translating

Let's be bad

If I drown in baths of gin

Notify my next of kin

They might grieve or might jump in

Let's be bad

Who wants plays and O'Neill dramas

Gershwin is the cat's pajamas

I'm the queen of the red hot mamas

Let's be bad

Each crook and G Man

Is poppin He-man

Just stick with me man

If he tried to juke

With my red hot yuke

And just like Judas once said to Luke

Here's the key for my ignition

Hit the gas to my transmission

When you hear the things I'm wishing

You won't offer opposition

Let's prohibit prohibition

Let's be bad

Some like it hot and that ain't bad
