Flatt And Scruggs - The Good Times Outweigh the Bad lyrics

rate me

1. Ive been settin here thinkin back over my life

All of the good things the trouble and strife

Well my share of worries yet so many Ive had

But I still think the good things outweigh the bad

Cho: Well Ive rocked my babies at night when they cried

Ive seen the teardrops turn into smiles

And thats when I realized all the bad luck Ive had

But I still think the good things outweigh the bad

2. Well I never had riches no money to spare

Just a sharecroppers wages is my only fare

Yes makin my livin just workin the land

But I know all the good things outweigh the bad

Repeat Cho:

Play

3. Yes Ive worked the cotton in the heat of the day

And then paid the landlord nearly all that I had

Well Ive seen high water take all that I had

But I know all the good things outweigh the bad

Repeat cho:

End
