George Thorogood and The Destroyers : Born To Be Bad 1988 MP3 & Flac

Born Dec 24, 1950 in Wilmington, DE

A blues-rock guitarist who draws his inspiration from Elmore James, Hound Dog Taylor, and Chuck Berry, George Thorogood never earned much respect from blues purists, but he became a popular favorite in the early '80s through repeated exposure on FM radio and the arena rock circuit.

Thorogood's music was always loud, simple, and direct . His riffs and licks were taken straight out of '50s Chicago blues and rock & roll , but his formulaic approach helped him gain a rather large audience in the '80s, when his albums regularly went gold.


Born to Be Bad is a studio album released by George Thorogood. It was released in 1988 on the EMI label. The album peaked at #32 on the Billboard 200.

BORN TO BE BAD LYRICS

On the night I arrived my daddy said "Sakes Alive,
He's the meanest one that we've had yet!"
Teethed on tin and weened on gin
I was nobody's teacher's pet
I grew up rough and mean in my early teens
And I didn't want to go to school
I called no man "Sir" and work was a dirty word
My biggest kick was breakin' the rules

Now when you see me comin', get away
The one's that didn't ain't around today
The sweetest piece of lovin' any girl ever had
I'm here to tell ya boys I was born to be bad
Born, born to be bad
I was born, born to be bad

Now when I reached 21 I had that ole ramblin' itch
Breakin' little girls hearts I tore the world apart
A guitar-playin' son of a...

Born to be bad
That's the story of my life
Yeah, doin' things wrong is my way of doin' things right

Now when I'm gray and old and my story's told
I know what the people will say
They'll be glad to see me go
But the little girls will know
I was bad til my dyin' day

So when you see me comin', get away
The one's that didn't ain't around today
The sweetest piece of lovin' any girl ever had
I'm here to tell ya boys I was born to be bad
Born, born to be bad
I was born, born to be bad

Now when I'm old and gray and I've had my day
I know what the people will do
They'll be glad to see me go
But the little girls will know
I was bad til the day I was through

So when you see me comin', get away
The one's that didn't ain't around today
The sweetest piece of lovin' any girl ever had
I'm here to tell ya boys I was born to be bad
Born, born to be bad
I was born, born to be bad

YOU TALK TOO MUCH LYRICS

You talk too much,
you talk too much
I can't believe the things that you say everyday
If you keep on talking baby You know you're bound to drive me away

Now you get on the telephone with your girlfriend
Your conversation baby ain't got no end
Yakety-yakety-yakety-yak all the time
You keep on talking baby drive me out of my mind

You talk too much
I can't believe the things that you say everyday
If you keep on talking baby
You know you're bound to drive me away

Well I laid out in the afternoon
I start to nappin'
You walk into the room with them jaws a-flappin'
You keep that motormouth moving morning,
noon and night
You keep on talking baby make my head turn white

You talk too much
I can't believe the things that you say everyday
If you keep on talking baby
You know you're bound just to drive me away

I think you're trying to put me through some kind of test
I'm begging you baby won't you give it a rest
You talk about people that you don't even know
Keep it up baby I'm gonna pick up and blow
You talk too much
I can't believe the things that you say everyday

If you keep on talking baby
You know you're bound to drive me away

Don't get me wrong baby
I don't mean to complain
But if you keep on talking you're gonna drive me insane
You keep on talking all around the clock
I'm begging you baby won't you please stop

You talk too much
I can't believe the things that you say everyday
If you keep on talking baby
You know you're bound to drive me away

Yes Dear . Yes Dear . I heard you .

Now Shut up !!!
SHUT UP !!!
