Bad Company Lyrics
Destiny, ooh - is the rising sun
Oh, I was born, six-gun in my hand
Behind a gun I'll make my final stand
That's why they call me
Bad company 'till the day I die
Till the day I die
Till the day I die
Chose a gun, and threw away the sword
Now these towns they all know our name
Six-gun sound is our claim to fame
I can hear them say
Bad, bad company 'till the day I die
Till the day I die
Bad company, till the day I die
Bad company, till the day I die, oh yes
Oh but I am bad company
It's the way I play - dirty for dirty
Oh somebody double-crossed me
Double-cross, double-cross
Yeah, we're bad company
Oh run cold my blood
I believe that bad company was written about a desserting confederate company in the civil war (Rebel souls- Confederates or rebels, Desserters we are called obviously they have desserted . They were infamous because of their vigilantie reputations. He leads the company but is double crossed much like other Rebel groups.
Really? You think that a band from Great Britain wrote a song about defecting from the Cival War? Jesus, what a retard!

"You have an opinion that's different from my opinion? Jesus, what a retard!" Shut the fuck up and don't bother coming back, simpleton. You're nothing but Internet scum. And yes, it IS possible for a person from one country to write about a different country; I checked. I wrote a poem about Japan and didn't get deported. Crazy, I know. Fuckin' magnets, how do they work.

Very simple. It's about the bandits and gangs that roamed the old West, like Billy the Kid and such. Also, julioismyname, are you smoking crack?
Squeven, i think if you listen to OTHER songs of Zeppelin that aren't hits (ie, Your Time is Gonna Come, You Shook Me, The Ocean, Boogie With Stu, Fool In The Rain, The Crunge, the list goes on man) i think you might change your mind. But Bad Company does kick so much ass
This song is about how he is 'Bad Company'. Yeah, till the day he dies. Hmmm...quite!
I feel like this song is about the seven cowboy bandits who had to protect a Mexican village in the 1960 film, The Magnificent Seven. It makes the most sense because the song states, "these towns... they all know our name." Also, the Magnificent Seven was continued from an older movie in the 50's called Seven Samurai. Despite the songs reference to the number six, the song also includes the lyrics, "chose a gun, and throw away the sword." This could reference the discard of swords that samurais used in the 50's, and pick up in the 60's to where the seven cowboys used guns instead. Makes sense? Hopefully. Just watch The Magnificent Seven movie and maybe the song will link. Plus the song was made in 1970, ten years after the movie was made. Just a thought!!!
bad Company is an awesome song and this awesome song is about that awesome band
Been listenin to Bad Company since I was a kid! Great band!
definitely a song that deserves to be very popular
it's not that bad, but it can't hold a candle to the original. Paul Rodger's voice is so fitting to this song, anyone trying to cover it is screwed from the start.
Bad Company by Bad Copmpany off the album Bad Compnay. The song is about a a group of guys that are just considered bad asses but really they just got sucked into that lifestyle since they born into it.
