Good Life - James McMurtry

Got two cars and a chainlink fence

Got insurance for accidents

Nevermind what I don’t know

I dream of places I won’t ever go

But I lead a good life

Yeah, I lead a good life

'N every Sunday we’re out at the lake

Teachin the kids how to jump the wake

We drag em on two skis they kick one loose

They don’t know it, they hadn’t got a clue

That they lead a good life

Yeah, they lead a good life

Don’t complain to me

We’re alright far as I can see

Keep it to yourself

Take that garbage somewhere else

Yeah, we lead a good life

You know, we lead a good life

Don’t complain to me

We’re alright far as I can see

Keep it to yourself

Grandpa died back in '85, now they won’t let Grandma drive

Bankers took everything he made

He lost his fingers to a Bush Hog blade

But he led a good life (he told me so)

Yeah, he led a good life

I’ve had about enough of you

Tryin to tell us what to do

We’re gonna do just what we please

Sell it all to the Japanese

So we can lead a good life

So we can lead a good life…
