Tammy Wynette - Good lyrics



(Billy Sherrill - Glenn Sutton)

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 it's my chance.

To be good like I want to be
That's what he's saw in me
Not just a girl on 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 prove
I've been good like he wanted me.

But good is what I'll never be
And now I know that he's gone for good...
