Verse 1
Em
I've got a pistol that's
Bm
eager to shoot.
B
Em
I'm just an ornery sort of a brute.
B
Em
I've got 20 carels just
to hold all my gals.
They say I'm wicked,
C
Em
but think that I'm cute.
G
Em
I'm a bad man, I'm a bad man,
so you better stay out of my way
B
Well now, I got a pistol, but I never draw
Bm
Em
I get my results keeping
inside the law
When I sing and I play,
women give me my way
Bm
I'm just the slickest thing
Em
that they ever saw
I'm a bad man, I'm a bad man
So you better stay out of my way
Bm
I like a gal, and I just grab her hand
B
Soon after that she'll
Bm
Em
be wearing my brand
C
Em
When I twirl my lasso, then she's ready to go
I make them cry,
Bm
Em
but they think that I'm grand
I'm a bad man, I'm a bad man
G
Em
So you better stay out of my way
I don't believe in all
B
Bm
that honoree stuff.
Em
I get my gals, but chucks,
I never play rough.
I just walk and she purrs
when I jingle my spurs.
I get what you get without getting tough.
I'm a bad man, I'm a bad man,
so you better stay out of my way.
B
Bm
I treat my women like I treat
my mules.
B
They don't get stubborn
Em
when I make the ruse.
C
Em
When I'm crackin' my whip,
then they don't give me no lip.
I've got them buffalo,
the sweet little foos.
I'm a bad man, I'm a bad man,
so you better stay out of my way.
C
Em
Now I treat a gal like a gal, not a mule.
B
Em
I get a flame burnin', just keepin' cool
With a wink of the eye and,
well, a sort of a sigh
They think that I'm precious
and just as rare as a jewel
I'm a bad man, I'm a bad man
G
Em
So you better stay out of my way
I use my muscles to make a gal fall
B
Em
B
Bm
Me, I do it smoother,
Em
avoidin' the brawl
We're a couple of cards
Say, we oughta be pars
Let's get together and we'll get them all
G
Oh, we're bad men, yes, we're bad men
Em
So you'd better stay out of our way
