Flatt and Scruggs - Good Things (outweight The Bad) lyrics

I've been sittin' here thinkin' back over my life All of the good things the trouble and strife Well my share of heartache yes so many I've had But I still think the good things outweigh the bad Well I've rocked my babies at night when they cried I've seen the teardrops turn into smiles And that's when I realize all the bad luck I've had And I know all the good things outweigh the bad Well I never have riches no money to spare Just a sharecropper's wages is my only fare Yes makin' my livin' just working the land But I still think the good things outweigh the bad Well I've rocked my babies... Yes I've worked the cotton in the heat of the day And then paid the landlord nearly all that I made Well I've seen high water take all that I had But I still think the good things outweigh the bad Well I've rocked my babies...
