Good

(Billy Sherrill - Glenn Sutton)



I was a waitress in a barroom

No future in sight

And he was just lonely

When he came there that night.



Then someone played the jukebox

And he asked me to dance

And when he softly held me

I thought it's my chance.



To be good like I want to be

That's what he's saw in me

Not just a girl on the wrong side of town

Good like I used to be, he brought it out in me.

And that's when I promised

That I'd never let him down.



Now I'm back here in a barroom

A waitress again

The good world I've lived in

Just came to an end.



For temptation comes easy

To a woman like me

And regardless of my chances

I know that I'll never be.



Good like I used to be

I guess it's just not in me

With all my heart how I wish I prove

I've been good like he wanted me.



But good is what I'll never be

And now I know that he's gone for good...
