Bad Girl
Rihanna (Feat. Chris Brown) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We stay moving around, solo
Ask us where you at, we don't know
And don't care (Don't care)
All we know is we was at home 'cause you left us there
You got your boys and got gone
And left us all alone
Now she in the club with a freaky dress on
Cats don't want her to keep that dress on
Trying to get enough drinks in her system
Take it to the tele and make her a victim
Patron on the brain, ball player in the face
They shake the spot, she's just another case

Easy for a good girl to go bad
And once we gone (Gone)
Best believe we've gone forever
Don't be the reason
Don't be the reason
You better learn how to treat us right
'Cause once a good girl goes bad
We die forever

He's staying with a flock of them, oh, yeah
Got a girl at home but he don't care
Won't care (Won't care)
All he'll do is keep me at home, won't let me go nowhere
He thinks because I'm at home I won't be getting it on
And now I'm finding numbers in the jacket pockets
Tricks calling the house, non-stop its
Getting out of control
Finally I can't take no more
He finds a letter on the stairs, saying this is the end
I packed my bag and left with your best friend

Easy for a good girl to go bad
And once we gone (Gone)
Best believe we've gone forever
Don't be the reason
Don't be the reason
You better learn how to treat us right
'Cause once a good girl goes bad
We die forever

We stay moving around, solo
Ask us where you at, we don't know
And don't care (Don't care)
All we know is we was at home 'cause you left us there
You got your boys and got gone
And left us all alone

Easy for a good girl to go bad
And once we gone (Gone)
Best believe we've gone forever
Don't be the reason
Don't be the reason
You better learn how to treat us right
'Cause once a good girl goes bad
We die forever





We gone forever
We gone forever

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Bad Girl" by Rihanna featuring Chris Brown depict the story of two women who have been left alone by their partners to go out partying. The women are frustrated by the men's attitude, and they go out to enjoy themselves. However, it becomes a problem when one of them attracts unwanted attention from men in the club. The lyrics suggest that these men don't take no for an answer and only see the woman as a conquest. The song touches on the themes of betrayal, heartbreak, and empowerment.


The refrain, "Easy for a good girl to go bad" multiple times, suggests that in society, it's too easy for a woman who is usually well-behaved to become corrupted. It urges the men to treat their women with more respect and love. The lyrics convey the message that women are not objects and should not be treated as such. Instead, they demand respect and understanding.


Line by Line Meaning

We stay moving around, solo
We're always on the move, alone


Ask us where you at, we don't know
We don't know our location when asked


And don't care (Don't care)
We don't care enough to check our location


All we know is we was at home 'cause you left us there
All we know is we were left alone at home


You got your boys and got gone
You left with your friends


And left us all alone
And abandoned us without any company


Now she in the club with a freaky dress on
She's now at the club wearing a revealing dress


Cats don't want her to keep that dress on
Guys are trying to convince her to take off the dress


Trying to get enough drinks in her system
She's trying to drink enough to get drunk


Take it to the tele and make her a victim
They plan to take her to a hotel room and take advantage of her


Patron on the brain, ball player in the face
She's thinking about alcohol and a famous athlete


They shake the spot, she's just another case
They make a move and she becomes just another victim


Easy for a good girl to go bad
It's easy for a good girl to become corrupted


And once we gone (Gone)
And once we're corrupted and gone


Best believe we've gone forever
Believe that we're gone for good


Don't be the reason
Don't be the cause of our corruption


You better learn how to treat us right
You need to learn how to treat us properly and respectfully


'Cause once a good girl goes bad
Because once a good girl is corrupted


We die forever
We die for good


He's staying with a flock of them, oh, yeah
He's staying with a group of girls


Got a girl at home but he don't care
He has a girlfriend but doesn't care about her


Won't care (Won't care)
He won't care enough to be faithful


All he'll do is keep me at home, won't let me go nowhere
He'll keep her at home and won't let her go out


He thinks because I'm at home I won't be getting it on
He thinks she won't cheat on him because she's at home


And now I'm finding numbers in the jacket pockets
She's finding phone numbers in his jacket pockets


Tricks calling the house, non-stop its
Other women are calling the house constantly


Getting out of control
It's getting out of hand


Finally I can't take no more
She's reached her breaking point


He finds a letter on the stairs, saying this is the end
He finds a breakup letter on the stairs


I packed my bag and left with your best friend
She packed her bags and left with his best friend


We gone forever
We're gone for good

Both versions are equally good.ย  Both ladies killed it on the track.ย  It's just that were all use to hearing Rihanna's voice.ย  It's ok to love both versions and both artists.ย  We don't always have to compare.
