Bad boy (archetype)
The bad boy is a cultural archetype that is variously defined, and is often used synonymously with the historic terms rake or cad: a male who behaves badly, especially within societal norms.
Definitions
The stereotypical "bad boy" was described by Kristina Grish in her book Addickted as "the irresistible rogue who has the dizzying ability to drive women wild" with a "laissez-faire attitude about life and love".
An article in The Independent compared the term "bad boys" with men who had a particular combination of personality traits, sometimes referred to as a "dark triad", and reported that a study found that such men were likely to have a greater number of sexual affairs.

Bad Boy (Larry Williams song)
"Bad Boy" is a song composed and recorded by Larry Williams. The song was recorded at Radio Recorders in Hollywood, California on August 14, 1958. The musicians on the recording included Williams on vocals and piano, Earl Palmer on drums, René Hall on guitar, Jewell Grant on baritone sax, Plas Johnson on tenor sax, and Ted Brinson on bass. The record did not break the Top 40 charts in the United States.
"She Said Yeah" was originally the B-side of the Larry Williams single, and has been covered by the Rolling Stones and the Animals, amongst others. The Beatles loved the song and almost certainly performed it on stage and fully intended to record it. Paul McCartney in the liner notes to his album Run Devil Run said "Me and John [Lennon] particularly loved Larry Williams...Bony Moronie...John did Slow Down...I was always going to do She Said Yeah". Roy Young (who was invited to join The Beatles) recorded a cover version in 1959. Paul McCartney finally recorded it in 1999.

Good Man
by: Raphael SaadiqGood man, I'm a good man, food's on the table, working two jobs,
Waiting willing the neighbors check your name
I'm having fun, got no kids and I love the Lord, check your name
I'm a ... never did time but maybe just once, check your name
And I puts it down, wanna see it twice, brother puts it down, check
How could you ever walk away, after all I've done for you
I feel like there's a knife in my back, babe
You might as well pull it all the way through
Good man, I'm a good man, food's on the table, working two jobs,
Waiting willing the neighbors check your name, good man
I'm having fun, got no kids and I love the Lord, check your name
I'm a ... never did time but maybe just once, check your name
And I puts it down, wanna see it twice, brother puts it down, check
You watched them hand cuff me lady, and walk me to my room
I never been so humiliated, I don't think that I deserve it for you
Good man, I'm a good man, food's on the table, working two jobs,
Waiting willing the neighbors check your name, good man
I'm having fun, got no kids and I love the Lord, check your name
I'm a ... never did time but maybe just once, check your name
And I puts it down, wanna see it twice, brother puts it down, check
I never been, I never been so much pain, never
My life is better, my love is pretty, so much better, now
Without you, I never had so ... without you, whenever ... inside
How could you... just ...walk away
When the things go rough you quickly ran into .. somebody say, I've been there
There's one thing I know so I'ma tell you that I'm a good man, back to you, a good man
