Good Times Bad Times

In the days of my youth
I was told what it means to be a man
But now I've reached that age
I've tried to do all these things the best I can
No matter how I try
I find my way through the same old jam

Good times, bad times
You know I've had my share
When my woman left home with a brown-eyed man
But I still don't seem to care

Sixteen, I fell in love
With a girl as sweet as could be
Only took her a couple of days
Till she was rid of me
She swore that she would be all mine
And love me till the end
When I whispered in her ear
I lost another friend

Good times, bad times
You know I've had my share
When my woman left home with a brown-eyed man
But I still don't seem to care

I know what it means to be alone
I sure wish I was at home
And I don't care what the neighbors say
I'm gonna love you each and every day
You can feel the beat within my heart
Realize, sweet babe, we ain't never gonna part
