Thought I'd polish up my halo - just the other night 

It was gettin' kinda dusty on the shelf! 

Well I'm a part time angel, with a slightly tainted soul 

Sometimes I can't seem to help myself! 

So I went to confession, the priest just kicked me out 

Said we don't want part time angels comin' round! 

Lord I'm far from perfect - you gave me this free will! 

Now's the perfect time to paint the town!! 

Chorus: 

Can't fight it, can't right it - got to go with the flow! 

Dance with the devil, in the fire down below! 

Well I'm no Pollyanna, but am I ever glad! 

That sometimes - it's good 

To be Bad!! 

So I found a preacher, by the riverside - said preacher man 

my halo's lost it's glow! 

He said don't pollute my river 

With your part time angel ways! 

Sure as hell you're headed down below! 

So I put my halo, back up on the shelf 

This part time angel's callin' it a day! 

The moon is shinin' brightly 

Midnight knows my name! 

It's beggin' me to come on out and play! 

(Chorus) 

Bridge: 

Come on shake that bootay, chase some whiskey with some wine 

Show that mean old world, you love havin' a good time! 

Love that wild woman, with lips all gypsy red! 

No more Mr. Nice Girl - she's home safe in bed! 

(Chorus)
