Text: The Robert Cray Band. Bad Influence.

(R. Cray & M. Vannice)

You used me
To get ya anything you wanted
Oh...but I'm a changed man
It's your other friend that gets ya what you want now

If I go through those same things again
I'll be worse off than I started
Oh...you're such a bad influence
Baby, you've got ways to make me do what you want
Oh...and you're such a bad influence
Girl, I've got to stay away

I've been hurt
In all of the worst kinds of ways
And it's from you, pretty baby
That Bob's just got to stay away from

I won't go through those same things again
I'm so glad that we parted

Oh...you're such a bad influence
Baby, you've got ways to make me do what you want
Oh...and you're such a bad influence
Girl, I've got to stay away

Somebody please
You've got to help me break away
You know I don't like this lonely feeling
I wasn't meant to be this way

Oh no, I won't go through those same things again
I'm so glad we parted, baby

Oh...you're such a bad influence
And you've got ways to make me do what you want
Oh...and you're such a bad influence
And I've got to stay away from you

Oh...you're such a bad influence
Baby, you've got ways to make me do what you want

I can't stand it
Whoa...oh no no
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
Oh...no no no
No, no, no
