Bad Influence Lyrics - Heritage Of The Blues: Phone Booth - Robert Cray

Call it bad 

My bad my bad influence 

Big town holds me back 

Big town skims my mind 

Small minds wear me down 

Spreading salt on fertile ground 

Honest pleasures now forsaken 

Drastic measures to be taken 

Can't accept your difference 

They call it bad influence 

CHORUS 

Free mind, free soul 

It's time for liberation to flow 

Free mind, free soul 

It's time so let your future unfold 

Call it bad 

My bad my bad influence 

Break out of the mold before the mold sets in 

Dangerous walls are closin' in 

They twist the truth 

Then give it a spin 

Love's a grenade, I'll pull the pin 

CHORUS 

The circle is wide 

Shadows flower into the light 

Bad influence 

Bad such a bad influence 

You think I'm bad 

You think I'm bad 

Well I'm the most fun that you ever had 

So good, so good 

But people say I'm a bad influence 

Wide mouths, narrow minds 

Can't accept your difference 

Open season on new ideas 

They call it bad influence 

CHORUS 

My bad my bad influence 

Just a bad influence 

My bad my bad influence 

Call it bad 

My bad my bad influence 

Wide mouths with narrow minds 

Narrow minds, creak and grind 

Rally to a peaceful sound 

Let the barriers tumble down 

My bad my bad influence 

My bad my bad influence 

Break out of the mold before the mold sets in 

Dangerous walls are closin' in 

They twist the truth 

Then give it a spin 

If love's a grenade, better pull the pin! 

Call it bad 

My bad my bad influence
