Bad Seed

Maura Kennedy / Nanci Griffith

You know I've always been a bad seed
Drifted every way the wind blows
Now I ain't got much to show
You know you reap just what you sow

Now I was born to be a loner
Tried to settle for a spell
Had an angel in my corner
Made her life a living hell

Bad seed
There's a darkness I can't hide
Bad seed
Too much pain to keep inside

Now there's no need to try and help me
I don't try to help myself
I cling to a losin' hand
Empty heart is all that's left

Bad seed
There's a darkness I can't hide
Bad seed
Too much pain to keep inside

You know I've always been a bad seed
Drifted every way the wind blows
Now I ain't got much to show
You know you reap just what you sow

Bad seed
There's a darkness I can't hide
Bad seed
Too much pain to keep inside

Bad seed
There's a darkness I can't hide
Bad seed
Too much pain to keep inside
