Anika Noni Rose Steppin' to the Bad Side Lyrics

Steppin to the bad side, ooh, ooh, ooh
Steppin to the bad side
Gonna take a mean
Ride
Mean ride
The smile I had has gone away
Those that steal are gonna pay

Steppin to the bad side, today
Steppin to the bad side, ooh, ooh, ooh
Gonna take a mean ride, ooh, ooh, ooh

The smile I had has gone away
Those that steal are gonna pay

Steppin to the bad side, today

I tell ya now, its got to end
No more trustin them, my friend
We'll change our style, change our tone
Make our songs we sing our own

Steppin to the bad side, ooh, ooh, ooh
Gonna take a mean ride, ooh, ooh, ooh

I got you all the breaks you need
In just two years, we'll be in the lead
Just sit back, it's plain to see
Open your eyes and trust in me

Steppin to the bad side, ooh, ooh, ooh
Gonna take a mean ride, ooh, ooh, ooh

I was a man who tried to be good

I was always misunderstood

Want to play fair?
mumblemumble
You got to get right down and show your danger streak

Steppin to the bad side, ooh, ooh, ooh
Gonna take a mean ride, ooh, ooh, ooh
Steppin'bad x 9

[Radio DJ intros, overlapping]
Ladies and gentlemen,
Please welcome to the Apollo Theatre's legendary stage,
James Early and the Dreamettes,
singing their number one hit,
Steppin' to the Bad Side!

Steppin to the bad side, steppin to the bad side
Steppin to the bad side, steppin to the bad side
Steppin to the bad side, steppin to the bad side
Steppin to the bad side, steppin to the bad side

I had to step into the bad side

Ooh, ooh, ooh

I had to take myself a mean ride

Ooh, ooh, ooh

You know the smile I had has gone away

Ooh

Those that steal are gonna pay

Steppin to the bad side(Dreamettes: Today)

Yea-ee-yea, Man just stole my woman from me
Took her down to Tennessee
She was the best girl I ever knew
If it wasnt for him, she'd still be true
I've always been a good man, its been said
When I catch that man, he'll wish you were dead
Men like him make good men mad
Starting today I'm gonna be bad, yeah, yeah, yeah

Steppin to the bad side

Ooh, ooh, ooh

I had to take myself a mean ride
You know the smile I had has gone away
Those that steal are gonna pay

Steppin to the bad side
Steppin to the bad side
Steppin to the bad side

Steppin to the bad side
Today

Step, step, to the bad side
Gotta step to the bad side
Step, step, to the bad side
