Bad Seed

(Bill Anderson)



Ain't been in Little Rock

But two weeks and here I am now

Packing up and disappearing into thin air

Girls in Little Rock are cute

But I can't make my heart take roots

'Cause bad seed won't grow just anywhere.



I need a lots of sunshine

I need a lots of raindrops

I need to breath the open air

I hope to beg your pardon

Your town just ain't my garden

Bad seed won't grow just anywhere.



So honey kiss goodbye to your bad seed

my love is not the kind of love that you need

I could stay here with you but I wouldn't play fair

'Cause bad seed won't grow just anywhere.



And you're looking at the baddest of the bad seed.

Next stop Jacksonville now I don't know but I got the feeling

I might just kinda like it somewhere round there

Hear tell there's fertile land white pearly silver sand

And bad seed won't grow just anywhere.



I need a lots of sunshine

I need a lots of raindrops

I need to breath the open air

I hope to beg your pardon

Your town just ain't my garden

Bad seed won't grow just anywhere.



So honey kiss goodbye to your bad seed

my love is not the kind of love that you need

I could stay here with you but I wouldn't play fair

'Cause bad seed won't grow just anywhere.



And you're looking at the baddest of the bad seed...
