lyrics

THE GOOD LIFE

Well I’m laying on your pillow baby
Your glass full of wine
The finest of chocholates baby
That money can buy
Sheets made of satin
Carpets strung with gold
It’s the good life baby
God forgive your soul

So you’ve read Steinbeck baby
You’re well versed in this world
And you’ve read those urban poets
I know you studied up North
But tonight you’re slumming girl
Your class be damned
You wanna show me the good life baby
So God’ll forgive your soul

Well I’ve got problems baby
Your money can’t solve
And I’ve got issues baby
I’ll probably never resolve
Maybe you’ve got a good heart
Maybe you’re really so blind
But if you’re looking for redemption now baby
This ain’t where you’ll find it

But you know the sun’ll come up
To replace the moon
And you know I’ll always think of you baby
If’n I leave too soon
And I know that good heart of yours will
Probably cry till noon
But you’ll get used to it baby
Just like the rest of us do
