Well i changed my ways to please that woman

But i could never be good enough

Yeah, i gave up drinkin' and took up churchin'

And for awhile it wasn't tough

But barkeep i've made a decision after doing the best i could

That for better or worse, i'm gonna be bad for good



So bring on the whiskey

Turn up the jukebox loud

These boots were made for tonkin'

Warn every woman around

I'm gonna wind it up tonight

A little tighter than i should

Yeah for better or worse, i'm gonna be bad for good



I really like my reputation

And how i'm known all over town

Of being the first in my generation

To close every single honky tonk down

I'm gonna be a tough act to follow

Doin' what i said i would

Yeah for better or worse, i'm gonna be bad for good



So bring on the whiskey

Turn up the jukebox loud

These boots were made for tonkin'

Warn every woman around

I'm gonna wind it up tonight

A little tighter than i should

Yeah for better or worse, i'm gonna be bad for good

Oh somebody be bad



I'm gonna wind it up tonight

A little tighter that i should

Yeah for better or worse, i'm gonna be bad for good

Yeah for better or worse, i'm gonna be bad for good
