I was minding my own business on a lazy afternoon 
 Watching the world go by 
 When a vision from the past came from out of nowhere 
 Shook me up, took me by surprise 
    She was dressed to kill, she knew I was sold 
 I had to pull myself together, pick myself up off the floor 
 Just a small town girl when she went away 
 Now she's back in town 
 I've got to say   
 The girl's gone bad, she's breaking all the rules 
 But I know it turns her on 
 The girl's gone bad, there's nothing I can do 
 When I woke up this morning 
 She was long, long, long, long gone   
 Hey my baby's gone 
 Oh yeah   
 She must have slipped out of the back door 
 In the early morning light 
 How did I ever let that woman steal away 
 I should have seen it coming, I must have been blind 
 'Cos she said she'd get me back one day   
 She made promises that she couldn't keep 
 And laid it out on the table, she left a note for me 
 Just a small town girl when she went away 
 Now she's all grown up 
 I've got to say   
 The girl's gone bad, she's breaking all the rules 
 But I know it turns her on 
 The girl's gone bad, there's nothing I can do 
 When I woke up this morning 
 She was long, long gone   
 Get on up 
 I said get on up   
 The girl's gone bad, she's breaking all the rules 
 But I know it turns her on 
 The girl's gone bad, there's nothing I can do 
 When I woke up this morning 
 She was long, long, long, 
 Long, long gone 
 The girl's gone bad, she's breaking all the rules 
 But I know it turns her on 
 The girl's gone bad, there's nothing I can do 
 When I woke up this morning 
 She was long, long, long, long gone   
 My baby's gone
