Brian May - Good Company lyrics

[Verse 1] Take good care of what you've got My father said to me As he puffed his pipe and Baby B He dandled on his knee Don't fool with fools who'll turn away Keep all Good Company Oo Hoo Oo Hoo [Chorus] Take care of those you call your own And keep Good Company Soon I grew and happy too My very good friends and me We'd play all day and Sally J The girl from number four And very soon I begged her won't you Keep me Company Now marriage is an institution sure My wife and I our needs and nothing more All my friends by a year By and by disappear But we're safe enough behind our door I flourished in my humble trade My reputation grew The work devoured my waking hours But when my time was through Reward of all my efforts my own Limited Company I hardly noticed Sally as we Parted Company All through the years in the end it appears There was never really anyone but me Now I'm old I puff my pipe But no-one's there to see I ponder on the lesson of My life's insanity [Chorus]
