Story Behind The Song
when I was growing up, I wasn't the preacher's daughter but I had a very strict father and I lived in a small town where what you did for fun you watched the grass grow didn't get to do a whole lot but for my own good I understand it today my dad tried his best to keep me away from the bad boys well any boys really

Lyrics
[Intro]
[Verse]
I WAS looking FOR LOVE WHEN I got lost and ended up in his arms
just a country girl from a small town
raised up on a farm
he was a young man from the city
a place I'd never been
he was the man mama warned me about
he was looking for more than just a friend
chorus
back up girl are you crazy
he's nothing but the bad boy type
your going to end up in trouble
he's gonna mess up your life
I'm not sure what your thinking
but what your thinking isn't right
it's okay if they just nibble
but this bad boy is going to bite
verse 2
you were looking for love when you found him
your headed down the wrong road
not sure what it will take to make you see
you can't change the seeds he has sowed
back up girl are you crazy
he's nothing but the bad boy type
your going to end up in trouble
he's gonna mess up your life
I'm not sure what you're thinking
but what you're thinking isn't right
it's okay if they just nibble
but this bad boy is gonna bite
