BAD CONTRACT
(Toronzo Cannon, Cannonball Express Music admin. by Small Scale Music, ASCAP)

(CHECK IT OUT)READ ABOUT IT, HEARD ABOUT IT, NOW IT’S ME
I SHOULDA SEEN IT COMING-- WOULD HAVE STAYED FREE
BIG FANCY WEDDING FOR HER FRIEND’S JEALOUSY
THE HOUSE WAS MINE NOW SHE GOT THE KEY

CHORUS:
I SIGNED A BAD CONTRACT (LORD) (2X)
SIGN ON THE LINE
YOU ONLY GET HALF BACK
I SIGNED A BAD CONTRACT

“TAKE WHAT YOU CAME WITH,” THAT’S WHAT I SAY
BUT THE JUDGE DIDN’T SEE IT THAT WAY
THEY SAY EVERY DOG HAS GOT ITS DAY
WELL THE DOG HAD TO GO, (Y’ALL) WITH HALF MY PAY

CHORUS;
I SIGNED A BAD CONTRACT (2X)
SIGN ON THE LINE
YOU ONLY GET HALF BACK
I SIGNED A BAD CONTRACT

NOT ABOUT CHEATING; I’M TIRED OF THE STRIFE
WHEN THE WOMAN YOU LOVE RUINS YOUR LIFE
THE MASK FELL OFF THAT USED TO BE MY WIFE
NOW SHE’S STABBING ME IN THE BACK WITH A LAWYER’S KNIFE

CHORUS:
I SIGNED A BAD CONTRACT (LORD) (2X)
SIGN ON THE DOTTED LINE
YOU ONLY GET HALF BACK
I SIGNED A BAD CONTRACT

LOVE DON’T NEED A LAW, SO WHY WE NEED A WITNESS?
TO SEE US SIGN A PAPER ‘CAUSE YES, IT’S A BUSINESS
THE CONTRACT I SIGNED WAS WRITTEN WITH A SLICKNESS
MY LAWYER LOOKED AT ME AND SAID “SETTLE WITH A QUICKNESS”

CHORUS
I SIGNED A BAD CONTRACT (Y’ALL) (2X)
SIGN ON THE DOTTED LINE
YOU ONLY GET HALF BACK
I SIGNED A BAD CONTRACT
(OH, NO!)
