Girl Gone Bad Lyrics

Ah, lazy eyes in the summer heat
Fresh from out of town
Now she's working on the street
Shake them poor boys down
Woo (Girl) Woo, Girl gone bad, ye-ah
(Girl) Girl gone bad

Found that girl with a lonesome john
When she should have been with me
Guess that woman fall in love
She don't work for free

(Girl) Girl gone bad
Yeah
Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!

Ooooooo-oh!
Ooooo-oh!
Oh!

(Guitar Solo)

Mmmmmmmmmmm...
Ah

(Girl) Girl gone bad
Whoa! (Girl) Girl gone bad
Ow! Yeah (Girl) Girl, ooh, ooh, ooh
(Girl) Ooooh. Oh! Oh! Yeah!
Aw! (Girl) Say. Say. Uh!

Cover art for Girl Gone Bad lyrics by Van Halen

THE best Roth era Van Halen song. We all remember how much fun the band was, but this song had a dark melodic tone to it that always seems to me to be a reflection of where the band was at the end. The swan song of the Roth era. It's my favorite, but also makes me sad because it was the end. Same feeling I get when I hear Zeppelin's "Achilles Last Stand".

WHY DOES THIS HAVE THE MOST EPIC ROCK INTRO I'VE EVER HEARD?DAMN! IT RULES.

I feel like the rest of the song doesn't quite match, though.

Wicked tune!

About a new hooker on the strip Dave is infatuated with.

Girl doesn't want to be with me. She must be a prostitute. There's no other explanation.
