Joshua Burnside - The Good Life Lyrics

Joshua Burnside Lyrics

"The Good Life"

Living the life, the good life
With the house, the kid, and my good wife
Gonna try and not drink tonight
But the good life makes me
Thirsty

Driving around in the summer heat
Trying to get this kid to sleep
Shirt sticking to my seat
Living the good life

Living the life, the good life
With the house, the kid and my good wife
Tried to find, some peace of mind
But the good life keeps me
Busy

I can't get my thoughts straight
Running around always late
Doctor called
Said I missed the date
Better luck next time

Ahhh ahh ahhh ahhh ahhh
Ahhh ahh ahhh ahhh ahhh

Living the life, the good life
With the house, the kid, and my good wife
Gonna try and not drink tonight
But the good life makes me
Thirsty

I've got everything I need
But I can't sleep I can't sleep
Doom scrolling 'till half past three
Living the good life

Ahhh ahh ahhh ahhh ahhh
Ahhh ahh ahhh ahhh ahhh

Will this red light ever change?
When will this red light ever change?
And will I ever be the same again?
When does it get easier?

Gonna take a break someday
Go somewhere quiet
And far away
Where the hills overlap
In the yellow light
Gonna live that good life
