Tracy Byrd - You Never Know Just How Good You've Got It lyrics

(mark nessler) Hey once i was a honky tonkin' talk of the town Ridin' high in my bad chevrolet I had seven pretty women lord hanging on me A different one for every day But look at me now all my women's left town And a buck is getting hard to come by Well i must confess my life's a big mess I'm so low i could lay down and die Well you never know just how good you've got it Till you ain't got it no more You never know just how high you're flying Till you fall face down on the floor All i can do is just moan the blues And dream about what i had before Hey you never know just how good you've got it Till you ain't got it no more Here lately i've become one pool sharkin' fool Make my living on the buddies of mine I was cookin' last night when the chips were all down So i laid everything i had on the line I knew i'd regret that hundred dollar bet But you never learn until it's too late We flipped and i lost and then i paid the cost When the eight fell in on the break Well you never know just how good you've got it Till you ain't got it no more You never know just how high you're flying Till you fall face down on the floor All i can do is just moan the blues And dream about what i had before Hey you never know just how good you've got it Till you ain't got it no more No you never know just how good you've got it Till you ain't got it no more
