You Must Be Good - The Slackers

you must be good, so that you can sleep at night

you must be good, so that your mamma can hold you tight

and you must be good, or the devil come lick you

you must be good, dont let him trick you

oh every day, tempted by temptation

and every night by another situation

but you must be wise, be wise and reckoginze

or the devil come pull you down in a girlish disguise

you must be good, so that you can sleep at night

you must be good, so that your mamma can hold you tight

and you must be good, or the devil come lick you

you must be good, dont let him trick you

avarice and envy, lord these sins are deadly

greed and vanity, they hurt a good man plenty

but you must beware, and take care in your youthful insobriety

your cup may be full now but in the end it will be empty.

you must be good, so that you can sleep at night

you must be good, so that your mamma can hold you tight

and you must be good, or the devil come lick you

you must be good, dont let him trick you
