Ever since I can remember

There's only one thing I ever wanted to be

A swingin' little guitar-pickin' singer

It seemed like it came so naturally.

Mama said, "boy, you're bound for trouble."

Aw but them pretty girls started actin' sweet

I guess mama was right, it sure is a struggle

When you're offered all kinds of stuff for free.

Lovin' the wrong things

Got me on the wrong train

One that's headed way down

Nowhere but hell-bound

People tried to warn me

'bout livin' in the fast lane

Now look where it's got me

Lovin' all the wrong things.

Honky-tonks became my new place of habit

Free drinks all night up on the stage

Start to make you think you can't do without it

'til you realize it don't help you sing and play.

Aw, lovin' the wrong things

Got me on the wrong train

One that's headed way down

Nowhere but hell-bound

People tried to warn me

'bout livin' in the fast lane

Now look where it's got me

Lovin' all the wrong things.

Lovin' the wrong things

Got me on the wrong train

One that's headed way down

Nowhere but hell-bound

People tried to warn me

'bout livin' in the fast lane

Now look where it's got me

Lovin' all the wrong things

Look where it's got me

Lovin' all the wrong things.
