Good

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 he's my chance

To be good like I want to be that's what is all in me

Not just a girl from 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 could have been

Good like he wanted me but good is what I'll never be

And now I know that he's gone for good
