Lyrics
The Good Life Copyright ©2014 Colin Ward V1 Well you’ve got yourself a house in the city, And you’ve got another one on the beach, There’s a condo on the slopes for the winter, And a gun with a bullet in the breech The houses each come with a mortgage, Not to mention the upkeep and tax, And the Maserati sitting in the drive, Doesn’t help when it’s time to relax Chorus ‘Cause you work so hard for all your toys, You get so upset when your kids make noise, ‘You can’t afford to miss a sale, ‘Cause the bank won’t wait if your cash flow fails, And you can’t send in a rubber check, And you’ve turned into a nervous wreck, Enjoying the good life again…. V2 Your wife is playing golf at the club, And she’s planning a trip to Rome, And the contractor’s knocking on the door, With the plans to remodel your home, The boatyard called with an estimate, To make repairs to your yacht, So you’d better be calling your customers ‘Cause a sale would pay for that quote, Chorus Bridge So you’ve made the sale, And the world looks rosy again, The gun is back in the safe, Surely you deserve to buy that plane Chorus
