Growing  up I was always  mama's angel
Never  new I'd ever  fall from grace
 I was taught  to walk With God  and run from trouble
 But I ran  with a crowd that was bound to change my ways
 I was proud  to be in the bad news crowd
 The one  my mama warned me about
 The closest  thing to hell  she'd ever raised
 But when I look  back on those days I knew I'd never  change a thing
 I made  mistakes that paved  the way to the man  I am today
   (let  ring)
 I’m proud of em all, and I had a ball
 bending the rules and breaking the law
 x2
 2
 We were  bad about sneakin out  and shootin road  signs
Throwing  eggs and rollin  every yard in town
 Yeah my claim  to fame was a babe  Ruth swing on a mailbox
 Yeah the police  just love driving me around
Yeah  you learn to walk  the way you talk
 The DUI  means SOL
Respect  was earned
 You live and learn to pray
 You learn to pray
 We were proud  to be in the bad news crowd
 The one  our mamas warned us about
 The closest  thing to hell  they’ve ever raised
 But when I look  back on those days I know we'd never  change a thing
Made  mistakes that paved  the way for the men  we are today
   (let  ring)
 We’re proud of em all, yall. And we had a ball
 Bending the rules and breaking the law
 x2
