Bad Seed Songtext
von Jan Howard

Ain′t been in Little Rock but two weeks and here I am
Now packin' up and disappearin′ into thin air
Guys in Little Rock are cute but I can't make my heart take root
'Cause a bad seed won′t grow just anywhere

I need lots of sunshine and I need lots of raindrops
And I need to breathe the open air
I hope to beg your pardon your town just ain′t my garden
A 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 a bad seed won′t grow just anywhere
And you're lookin′ at the baddest of the bad seed

Next stop Jacksonville now I don't know but I got a feelin'
I might just kinda like it somewhere around there
I hear tell there′s fertile land white pearly silver sands
And a bad seed won′t grow just anywhere

I need lots of sunshine and I need lots of raindrops
And I need to breathe the open air
I hope to beg your pardon your heart just ain't my garden
A 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 a bad seed won't grow just anywhere
And you′re lookin' at the baddest of the bad seed
