Eddie Murphy - Steppin' To The Bad Side

They stole our hit, I never thought
You got me to think for you now
I've tried to make good without much success
You've got me to think for you now
Every time I try for more,
I wind up with less

You gotta put your soul on a moral break
Get to the point, you just gotta take

Steppin' to the bad side, ooh, ooh, ooh
Gonna take a mean ride
The smile I had is gone away
Those that steal are gonna pay
Steppin' to the bad side today

Steppin' to the bad side, ooh, ooh, ooh
Gonna take a mean ride, ooh, ooh, ooh
The smile I had is gone away
Those that steal are gonna pay
Steppin' to the bad side today

I tell you now, it's got to end
No more trustin' them, my friend
Change our style, change our tone
Make the songs we sing our own

Steppin' to the bad side, ooh, ooh, ooh
Gonna take a mean ride, ooh, ooh, ooh

I got you all the breaks you need
In just two years, we'll be in the lead
Just sit back, it's plain to see
Open your eyes and trust in me

Steppin' to the bad side, ooh, ooh, ooh
Gonna take a mean ride, ooh, ooh, ooh

I was a man who tried to be good
I was always misunderstood
I played fair, I played too meek
You gotta get way down and
show your danger streak

Steppin' to the bad side, ooh, ooh, ooh
Gonna take a mean ride, ooh, ooh, ooh

Steppin'
Steppin'
Steppin'

Step, step, step, step
Steppin' to the bad side

Steppin' to the bad side
Steppin' to the bad side
Steppin' to the bad side
Steppin' to the bad side

Steppin' to the bad side
Steppin' to the bad side
Steppin' to the bad side
Steppin' to the bad side

I had to step into the bad side
Ooh, ooh, ooh
I had to take myself a mean ride
Ooh, ooh, ooh

Oh, you know that smile
I had is gone away
Those that steal are gonna pay
Steppin' to the bad side today

Man just stole my woman from me
Her took her down to Tennessee
She was the best girl I ever knew
If it wasn't for him, she'd still be true

Always been a good man,
it's been said
When I catch the man,
he wish he were dead
Men like him make good men mad
Startin' today, I'm gonna be bad
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Steppin' to the bad side
Ooh, ooh, ooh
I had to take myself a mean ride
Ooh, ooh, ooh

Oh, you know that smile
I had is gone away
Those that steal are gonna pay
Steppin' to the bad side
Steppin' to the bad side
Steppin' to the bad side today

Step, step to the bad side
Step, step to the bad side
Step, step to the bad side
Step, step to the bad side

Step, step to the bad side
Step, step
Gotta step to the bad side
