DeLana Stevens - Good Enough For Me lyrics

rate me

(Verse 1)<br />

<br />

Spent most of my life feelin' tied down<br />

In this one stoplight, one horse town<br />

Couldn't wait to get out<br />

And see what the world had in store for me<br />

<br />

(Verse 2)<br />

<br />

'Cause with no good jobs and no good pay<br />

I was thinkin' New York or even LA<br />

Or a million other places that I'd rather be<br />

<br />

Pre Chorus<br />

<br />

When I turned eighteen I packed and hit the road<br />

Drivin' that Pontiac just as fast as it would go<br />

<br />

1st Chorus<br />

<br />

Off to a better place and a better life<br />

I could leave those old dirt roads behind<br />

Make a brand new start in a place I've never seen<br />

Yeah, there might be times I'll have hard days<br />

<br />

It's still gonna storm, still gonna rain<br />

But I'll take it as it comes 'cause I believe<br />

Oh, it ain't Heaven<br />

But it's good enough for me<br />

<br />

Verse 3<br />

<br />

Spent the next three years just scrapin' by<br />

Workin' two jobs, askin' myself why<br />

This asphalt hell used to look so good to me<br />

<br />

Verse 4<br />

<br />

With no room to breathe and no place to park<br />

Ain't safe to leave home after dark<br />

And the place I'm livin' ain't the one they show on TV<br />

<br />

Pre Chorus<br />

<br />

Ain't it funny how a change of pace can change your mind<br />

Make you miss that simple life you left behind<br />

<br />

2nd Chorus<br />

<br />

Back in a better place and a better life<br />

Far away from these city lights<br />

Where a neighbor waves when they pass you on the street<br />

Where a friend still lends a helpin' hand<br />

<br />

Best you try bein' a workin' man<br />

And God and family they still believe<br />

Oh, it ain't Heaven<br />

But it's good enough for me<br />

<br />

(Bridge)<br />

<br />

So late one night I packed and hit the road<br />

Drivin' that Pontiac just as fast as it would go<br />

<br />

Tag Chorus<br />

<br />

Back to a better place and a better life<br />

Far away from these city lights<br />

Where a neighbor waves when they pass you on the street<br />

Where a friend still lends a helpin' hand
