I was the shame of my dad.
Yes, the women and the wine,
they were drivin' men crazy,
it was so good to be bad.
I got a job runnin' cheap
Down on the Arkansas line
From Memphis to Pine Bluff
and a hopped -up old Jimmy
I had to be out of my mind
Well, you'll know the crop
by the seeds that are sown
Do all your plantin' with care
But a weed's still a weed
She was a good lovin' kind
Trouble was all I did find
Oh, when I was a boy, I was wild, I was lazy
I was the shame of my dad
Oh, the women in the world,
they would drive a man crazy
But it was so good to be bad
Yes, and you'll know the crop
by the seeds that are sowed
Do all your planting with care
But a weed is a weed anywhere
Yes, you'll know the crop
Do all your planting with care
Water and ground will make anything grow
But a weed's still a weed anywhere,
