Story Behind The Song
THIS SONG WAS WRITTEN IN 1992 WHICH CAME FROM A SONG i WROTE IN 1966 FOR MY BAND, THE BAD HABITS. Having ridden bikes in my youth this song just fell into my head while making a run to the desert for a biker blast that my band was performing at. The song became the most requested and biggest selling single of my early days as a performing musician. Several bands are playing this song in clubs across the country. Most using as a killer closer to their set. I own masters and copyrights 100%
Song Description
This song, A Lot of Bad Habits, says it all. Love trouble and bad habits create an irresistible sing along chorus and forcing you to get up and buggy. I love you baby but the doctors says you're killing me. She/he is a free spirit that is plagued by bad love. This song has generated over $10,000 is sales and royalties. The male version was top 10 song in several European countries as well as the whole album on CD and Vinyl titled, American Blues Deluxe. A great sing along chorus that excites people to get up and dance to this real blues song.

A LOT OF BAD HABITS
I RIDE A HARLEY DAVIDSON
I GOT A BIG TATTOO
BUT WHAT THE DOCTOR SAYS IS
REALLY KILLING ME IS YOU
(CHORUS)
I GOT A LOT OF BAD HABITS
I GOT A LOT OF BAD HABITS
I GOT A LOT OF BAD HABITS
BUT YOU'RE THE ONE THAT'S REALLY KILLING ME
I TOOK YOU TO A NIGHT CLUB
I WATCHED YOU PLAY YOUR GAME
TURNING EVERYBODY ON
EVEN THE BAND ALL KNEW YOUR NAME
(CHORUS)
I STAY OUT ALL NIGHT
SLEEP ALL DAY
WHY DO I GET THE FEELING
THAT SOMEDAY YOU'LL MAKE ME PAY
(CHORUS)
I DRINKA LITTLE THIS
I SMOKE A LITTLE THAT
IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE WAY I LIVE
YOU CAN KISS MY #%*
I should have realized
Right from the start
You've got yourself a PhD in breakin' my heart
Chorus vamp out
