"Life's Been Good" lyrics
"Life's Been Good"
(originally by Joe Walsh)
(Live Version (Santa Monica, July 29, 1980))
I have a mansion, forget the price
Ain't never been there, they tell me it's nice
I live in hotels, tear out the walls
I have accountants pay for it all
They say I'm crazy, but I have a good time, yes I do
I'm just looking for clues at the scene of the crime
Life's been good to me so far
My Maserati does 185
I lost my license, now I don't drive
I have a limo, ride in the back
I lock the doors and watch the war in Iraq
I make hit records, my fans they can't wait
They write me letters, tell me Glenn's great
So I got me an office, gold records on the wall
Just leave a message, maybe I'll call
Lucky I'm sane after all I've been through
Everybody says, "I'm cool" (He's cool)
I can't complain, but sometimes I still do
Life's been good to me so far
I go to parties, sometimes until four
It's hard to leave when you can't find the door
(Come in)
Tough to handle this fortune and fame
Everybody's so damn different, we haven't changed
Oh, and sometimes I still cry
Everybody say, "Oh, yeah, yeah" (Oh, yeah)
Oh yeah
I keep on goin', guess I'll never know why
Life's been good to me so far
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Wow, wow
Ah, ah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah

In wanting you to stay here with me
I know you've got somewhere to go
But won't you make yourself at home and stay with me?

And wasting all my time
Cause when you're standing oh so near

And I don't mind...

And I can say

And IN my own Way
I love you

The way I always do
How was I to know
She was with the Russians, too
I was gambling in Havana
I took a little risk
