Sometimes we look back and question the choices we make ... do we live for others or for ourselves? Words & Music by Joanne Lurgio
joanne lurgio songwriter
I am a singer/songwriter. At present, my band consists of me and my guitar.
I am a singer/songwriter. I have been singing and playing the guitar as long as I can remember. I write about love, life and anything else thats sent my way. If even for a moment, I can make you laugh, cry, reflect, remember or just forget the troubles of your day, then I have succeeded as a songwriter.

Lyrics
Livin’ the Good Life ©2001Joanne Lurgio V 1 He’s a golden boy, with a silver spoon All eyes follow as he crosses the room He’s been given the good life…Or so it seems To the outside world he’s been livin’ the American Dream… V 2 He has corporate status, an imported car Sippin’ champagne aside caviar He’s been livin’ the good life… Or so it seems But what is the cost to be livin’ someone else’s dream… Chorus ‘Cuz, Sooner or later it all comes to pass The sands of the hourglass have sifted too fast When time’s of the essence.. We start second-guessin’ The course where our choices have led… V 3 Now the golden boy glares at forty-five Lights the candles alone, he begins to cry Lookin’ back at the good life, it’s not what it seems He’d give it all up to be runnin’ fast after his dreams… V 4 So he packed a suitcase got his ole guitar Started singin’ to the locals down at David’s bar He’s got a taste of the good life…and so it seems The golden boy has finally taken hold of his dreams… Chorus ‘Cuz, Sooner or later it all comes to pass The sands of the hourglass have sifted too fast When time’s of the essence.. We start second-guessin’ The course where our choices have led… Final Ending He’s a golden boy, with a silver spoon All eyes follow as he crosses the room Now, he’s livin’ the good life, as sure as it seems He’s livin’ the good life, livin’ the American Dream He’s livin’ the good life, livin’ his American Dream
