Bending The Rules And Breaking The Law

[Verse 1] Growing up I was always mama's angel Never thought 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 [Chorus] Yeah I was proud to be in the bad news crowd The one my mama warned me about The closest thing to hell she's ever raised But when I look back on those days I know I'd never change a thing I made mistakes that paved the way for the man I am today I'm proud of 'em all And I had a ball Bending the rules and breaking the law [Verse 2] We were bad about sneaking out and shooting road signs Throwing eggs and rolling every yard in town Yeah, my claim to fame was a Babe Ruth swing on a mailbox Yeah,the police just loved driving me around [Chorus] [Verse 3] You learn to walk the way you talk And DUI means SOL Respect is earned You live and learn to pray You learn to pray [Chorus]
