Good Life

(album: Detour De Force - 2021)

Oh, it's a good life, good life, oh it's a good life
Oh, it's a good life, good life, oh it's, oh it's a good life

I did my best to write and sing
You know I wouldn't change a thing
With the benefit of hindsight I might
Not've had a fistfight that night

I made a family, I made friends
Made a mess, but made amends
I even made a little hot-white sunlight
At least I had the spotlight one night
It's alright!

It's a good it's a good it's a good life
Reliving that dream every night
We ain't gonna get another
Brothers and Sisters
You don't wanna live no other
It's a good it's a good it's a good life
Wasn't easy but it turned out alright
Wouldn't trade it for another
Brothers and Sisters
You don't wanna miss this mutha

Oh, it's a good life, good life, oh it's a good life
Oh, it's a good life, good life, oh it's, oh it's a good life

You ride a poem right to the top
You're in the moment, then you're not
You were everybody's favourite flavour
Pretty sweet, but now you've fallen out of favour

Was it hard to watch it go?
If you were there then you would know
Not much I miss about that fame game
Everybody knowing my face but not knowing my name
My name? What's my name?

It's a good it's a good it's a good life
Reliving that dream every night
We ain't gonna get another
Brothers and Sisters
You don't wanna live no other
It's a good it's a good it's a good life
Wasn't easy but it turned out alright
Wouldn't trade it for another
Brothers and Sisters
You don't wanna miss this mutha

It comes to pass
It doesn't come to stay
Let it all unfold
And just step out the way

It comes to pass
It doesn't come to stay
But let it all unfold
Just step out the way

Had the plate full, so I'm grateful, had the gatefold
States sold platinum, everywhere I'm at son
Arenas to the rafters, laughter, happily ever after
Now I'm sat here, looking back there
One Week, was a high peak, on the hot streak
Wasn't even funny, made money by the ton
We could've packed it up, then we had a Big Bang
Now after three decades it's still a good hang
It's a good it's a good it's a good life
Reliving that dream every night
We ain't gonna get another
Brothers and Sisters
You don't wanna live no other
It's a good it's a good it's a good life
Wasn't easy but it turned out alright
Wouldn't trade it for another
Brothers and Sisters
You don't wanna miss this mutha

Oh, it's a good life, good life, oh it's a good life
Oh, it's a good life, good life, oh it's, oh it's a good life
