Music: Annette Hanshaw 1929 - I Wanna Be Bad

Annette Hanshaw (October 18, 1901March 13, 1985) was one of the first great female jazz singers. In the late 1920s she ranked alongside Ethel Waters, Bessie Smith and the Boswell Sisters.
Hanshaw was known as "The Personality Girl," and her trademark was saying "That's all" in a childish voice at the end of many of her records she was renamed Gay Ellis (for sentimental numbers) and Dot Dare or Patsy Young (for her Helen Kane impersonations).

Lyrics -
To be or not to be that is not the question
i decided along ago to be
with me its what to be, make me some suggestion?

Good or bad which is the best for me!
When your after fun and laughter this aggravates you

Some reformer says a warmer climate awaits you
If its naughty to rouge your lips shake your shoulders and twist your hips, let a lady confess i wanna be bad
And if its naughty to Vamp the men,Sleep each morning till after ten then the answer is yes i wanna be bad
This thing of being a Good little goody is all very well what can you do when your loaded with plenty of hell and vigor
When your learning what lips are for if its naughty to ask for more, Let a Lady confess i wanna be Bad!

Baba, dadadada!
dada dui dui dui!

If its naughty to rouge your lips shake your shoulders and twist your hips let a lady confess i wanna be bad, bad girl i do! and if its naughty to vamp the men sleep each morning till after ten, then the answer is yes im gonna be a bad bad girl, while all around me they tell me how terribly naughy i am! Baba be Do!
Nobodys caring and nobodys giving a damn, Sel Credit
If its wrong to let someone take just a little kiss my mistake, let a lady confess, I Wanna Be Bad!
