"A Good Hearted Woman" lyrics

"A Good Hearted Woman"
(originally by Waylon Jennings)

A long time forgotten, the dreams that just fell by the way
The good life he promised ain't what she's livin' today
She never complains about the bad times or the bad things he's done, no
She just talks about the good times they had and all the good times to come

Yeah, she's a good-hearted woman in love with a good-timin' man
She loves him in spite of his wicked ways that she don't understand
Oh, with teardrops and laughter, they'll pass through this world, hand in hand
She's a good-hearted woman lovin' a good-timin' man

He likes the bright lights and nightlife and good-timin' friends
When the party's all over, she'll welcome him back home again
Lord knows, she don't understand him, but she does the best that she can
She's a good-hearted woman lovin' a good-timin' man

I'm a good-hearted woman in love with a good-timin' man
And I love him in spite of his wicked ways and I'll never understand
Oh, through teardrops and laughter, we'll pass through this world, hand in hand
I'm a good-hearted woman lovin' a good-timin' man

Oh, through teardrops and laughter, we'll pass through this world, hand in hand
I'm a good-hearted woman lovin' a good-timin' man
I'm just a good-hearted woman lovin' a good-timin' man
