"Good Time" lyrics

"Good Time"

The gentleman caller in the blue suede shoes
He don't know what to do
He just wants to look good for you
So he rushes in to tell you what he did today
But he can't think of what to say
I think you listen anyway

He wants to have a good time just like everybody
He doesn't want to fall apart

You watch him as he stutters over what to say
It's just a little game you play
It's no easier for you some days
You wish that you could tell him it'll be okay
But you feel a little shy these days
'Cause everybody goes away

You just want to have a good time
Just like everybody else
You don't want to fall apart

I can look into your eyes and see the mess we're in
Well darling, if it's shit came out
Then I suppose that it's shit went in
Even though I couldn't say I been the places that you've been
You know he made my heart real strong
Even if he made my head real thin

I want to have a good time
Just like everybody else
I don't want to fall apart this time
So would you please invite me in

So would you please invite me in?
I really love the red-haired girls
I'm just another boy from Texas
C'mon and take a spin
I got a brand new set of wings

Oh, I really, really love the red-haired girls
I'm just another boy from Texas
C'mon and take a spin
Hey, I got a brand new set of wings

Man, I sure do love them red-haired girls
I'm just like all the boys from Texas
Come on, take a spin
Hey little girl, I got a brand new set of wings
