Dave Davies - The Good Life (Bonus Track) lyrics

Well I failed my education And I failed at my first job Well I failed so bad that I nearly broke down But then the good, good life came and turned my head around Then a fat man walked up to me Smokin' a Havana cigar And said, "boy you gotta learn to put your body around You'll have a big Rolls-Royce and make one or ten million pounds It's gonna be the good life Good life I'll give you wine, women, music if you sign on the dotted line" Good good food Good good wine Well it's a good, good life and I love it Better off than being a tramp I write so many cheques that my fingers get cramp I've got so many women that I wish that I wasn't a man It's gonna be the good life Good life But I'm so browned off that it's given me a permanent tan Too much food Too much wine Well it's a good, good life and I love it That was a good, good life and I loved it Cheat me all the time Well they spent all their money, now they're gonna spend mine I got so many problems that it's keeping me awake at night And if this is civilization, I'd rather be uncivilized And if this is the good, good life, I'd rather be back in the mine
