"Good Times" lyrics

"Good Times"

Mostly I'm an optimist
Bore my bad news and still persist
Goin' on about my problems, say
"What's wrong with our world today?"

It may sound funny, but I'd give you all my money
And keep on goin' without a doubt

I never thought I would make it this far
Stumbling between every nightclub and bar
Every time I seem to catch my big break
The man calls me up, says there's been a mistake

Who can I count on?
What can I count on?
Where should I turn to?
Why should I be with you?

It may sound funny, but I'd give you all my money
And keep on goin' without a doubt
The good times playin', sayin' life is good, it could be better
Don't you dare go ahead and give out

From day to day I could get so depressed
But I've never paid someone to be oppressed
In my life when shit hits the fan
I simply sit back and follow the plan

It may sound funny, but I'd give you all my money
And keep on goin' without a doubt
The good times playin', sayin' life is good, it could be better
Don't you dare go ahead and give out

Who can I count on?
What can I count on?
Where should I turn to?
Why should I be with you?

It may sound funny, but I'd give you all my money
And keep on goin' without a doubt
The good times playin', sayin' life is good, it could be better
Don't you dare go ahead and give out
The good times playin', sayin' life is good, it could be better
Don't you dare go ahead and give out

Who can I count on?
What can I count on?
Where should I turn to?
Why should I...
