Purveyor of the bakersfield sound, country singer-songwriter Dwight Yoakam grew up in Columbus, Ohio before heading west and finding a home two doors down in Bakersfield, CA. "Honky Tonk Man" and "Guitars and Cadillacs" are classic songs in their own right, but nearly every song Yoakam churns out stays true to his sound and finds popularity among modern country fans, despite the saturation of the pop-oriented contemporary Nashville sound. The most recent release, "Blame the Vain" continues in the routine of solid albums from Mr. Yoakam.

I'm Bad, I'm Nationwide Lyrics
Dwight Yoakam
Well, I was rollin' down the road
In some cold blue steel,
I had a blues man in back,
And a beautician at the wheel.
We going downtown
In the middle of the night
We're laughing and I'm jokin'
And we feelin' alright.
Cause, I'm bad, girl, I'm nationwide.
Yes, I'm bad, girl I'm nationwide.
Easin' down the highway
In a new Cadillac,
I had a fine fox in front,
I had three more in the back..
They sportin' short dresses,
Wearin' spike-heel shoes,
They smokin' Lucky Strikes,
And wearing nylons too.
'Cause we bad, we nationwide.
Yeah we bad, yeah, we nationwide.
--- Instrumental ---
'Cause I'm bad, girl we're nationwide.
Yes I'm bad, girl I'm nationwide.
Well, I was movin' down the road
In my V-8 Ford,
I had my boots shined up,
And my sideburns lowered.
With my New York brim
And my gold tooth displayed,
Nobody give me trouble
'Cause they know I got it made.
'Cause I'm bad, girl I'm nationwide.
Yes I'm bad, girl I'm nationwide.
'Cause I'm bad, girl I'm nationwide.
Whoa girl I'm bad, girl I'm nationwide
Yes I'm bad, girl I'm nationwide.
Girl I'm bad, girl I'm nationwide.
Oh I'm bad, girl I'm nationwide.
Yes I'm bad, girl I'm nationwide.
Yes I'm bad, girl I'm nationwide.
I'm bad, girl I'm nationwide.
