[Verse 1]
Always been a little bit fast and wild
My mama always said I was a problem child
I'm just livin' life until the day I die
It's all I know, that's how I roll
[Pre-Chorus]
I party, get naughty
Always tellin' myself, "I'll never do this again"
I'm sorry that you caught me
Fuckin' in the hotel, it didn't mean anything
[Chorus]
Don't let me, don't let me go
I just wanna let you know that I'm no angel
But I can learn, oh
Baby, I'm bad to the bone
I just wanna let you know that I'm no angel
But I can learn
[Verse 2]
The second that you saw me, you were mesmerized
Bet you probably thought I was your ride or die
Don't wanna burst your bubble, but I cheat and lie
It's the truth, I'm bad news
[Pre-Chorus]
I party, get naughty
Always tellin' myself, "I'll never do this again"
I'm sorry that you caught me
Fuckin' in the hotel, it didn't mean anything
[Chorus]
Don't let me, don't let me go
I just wanna let you know that I'm no angel
But I can learn, oh
Baby, I'm bad to the bone
I just wanna let you know that I'm no angel
But I can learn, oh
[Post-Chorus]
Promise I'll try, promise I'll try (Oh)
Promise I'll try, promise I'll try (Oh)
I'm no angel, but I can learn
[Bridge]
Ooh, feels so good, feels so good, feels so good
Maybe you're just too good for me
But you're in too deep, yeah
Ooh, I get stressed out, it's too much, the pressure is on
And I can't quite breathe
If I go there, pull me right back, yeah
[Chorus]
Don't let me, don't let me go
I just wanna let you know that I'm no angel
But I can learn, oh
Baby, I'm bad to the bone
I just wanna let you know that I'm no angel
But I can learn, oh
[Post-Chorus]
Promise I'll try, promise I'll try (Oh)
Promise I'll try, promise I'll try (Oh)
I'm no angel, but I can learn
