(Clyde Pitts - Van Givens)

Just because she works in a honky tonk at night
That don't make her a bad girl
And it's true she always wears her dresses short and much too tight
But that don't make her a bad girl.

You can't tell by looking at the cover of a book
The story that its pages will unfurl
And she's just looking for a happy ending just like me and you
And that don't make her a bad girl.

She wears too much makeup and her blond hair really black
But that don't make her a bad girl
And those things her neighbors say they always say behind her back
But that don't make her a bad girl.

You can't tell by looking at the cover of a book
The story that its pages will unfurl
And she's just looking for a happy ending just like me and you
And that don't make her a bad girl.

No that don't make her a bad girl...
