[Intro]
(All the do-you-wrong playboys)
(Only-in-it-for-the-chase boys)

[Verse 2]
Had the narrow and the straight
Had the weekend down in Panama City
Had the one that got away
The stood me up after I got all pretty
The one that burned me like a cigarette
Had a one-night one that I regret

[Pre-Chorus]
That come-to-Jesus, I've had plenty
But hindsight's twenty-twenty

[Chorus]
Thank God for the bad love
Slow-song kinda sad love
The weepin'-like-a-willow, makeup-on-your-pillowcase
And the wantin'-what-you-had love
Never-gonna-get-him-back love
The put-it-back-together, swearin' it'll never break
'Cause it got me to the good love
The want-it-so-bad love, bad love, bad love
[Verse 2]
Had a few I never could tie down
And the one that tied the knot right after me
Lookin' back from where I'm at right now
I can see that's how it had to be

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause livin' this life that we're makin'
Was worth all the bullshit and waitin'
Got me sayin'

[Chorus]
Thank God for the bad love
Slow-song kinda sad love
The weepin'-like-a-willow, makeup-on-your-pillowcase
And the wantin'-what-you-had love
Never-gonna-get-him-back love
The put-it-back-together, swearin' it'll never break
'Cause it got me to the good love
The want-it-so-bad love, bad love, bad love

[Pre-Chorus]
That come-to-Jesus, I've had plenty
But hindsight's twenty-twenty

[Chorus]
Thank God for the bad love (All the do-you-wrong playboys)
Slow-song kinda sad love (Only-in-it-for-the-chase boys)
The weepin'-like-a-willow, makeup-on-your-pillowcase
And the wantin'-what-you-had love (Try-and-get-ya-in-their-truck boys)
Never-gonna-get-him-back love (Never-gonna-grow-up boys)
The put-it-back-together, swearin' it'll never break
'Cause it got me to the good love
The want-it-so-bad love, bad love, bad love
[Outro]
Ooh, ooh
The want-it-so-bad love
