I hear the voice calling me. We're out on the road tonight. My baby's Leaving me. Cause I'm never home at night. I had a telephone. I'm in a hotel room. Someone's knocking at my door. It Cannot be for me. CHORUS: I got a BAD REPUTATION. BAD REPUTATION. I needed love in the heat of the Night. You weren't around and I could not fight. I got a BAD REPUTATION. Oh, baby it hurts you so. But the show must go on. Tonight is another town. It goes on and on. I didn't take the time to stop. And think of life without your love. Oh baby please I'm on my knees. CHORUS, CHORUS
