You’d Better Lock Up My Baby (because he’s just too bad)

You’d better lock up my baby because he’s just too bad
You’d better lock up my baby because he’s just too bad
I’ve tried so hard to hold on but now it’s outta my hands
You’d better lock up my baby because he’s just too bad

Here comes the judge in his big black robe
Way up above where we sit down below
The scales of justice leveled on his desk
One little bump and they go outta balance

You’d better lock up my baby because he’s just too bad

Over at the jailhouse it’s like a fishing derby
Yeah, they reel ‘em in but it’s catch and release
I say there’s none too big and there’s none too small
Once they’re in the boat, you gotta skin ‘em all

You’d better lock up my baby because he’s just too bad

Oh Mr. Policeman better grab your cuffs
Oh Mr. Policeman, please not your gun
One takes a key
The other takes a son
Oh Mr. Policeman, please don’t mix ‘em up
