Richard Thompson - Good Things Happen To Bad People lyrics

rate me

Sweet thing, believe me

You never deceive me

You stood me down, without blinking

That’s when I really started thinking

You must have been running around

You must have been running around

Cause you were smiling

Your friends say you're antsy, for something fancy

Like a caged bird, that's broken free

You want to fly high, mess on me

Well I know you’ve got a secret or two

Your hair’s in a brand new do

And you’re so happy

Good things happen to bad people

Good things happen to bad people

But only, but only, for a while

Mona, lisa, what are a teaser

What’s in that strange, cologne that I’m smelling

You know more, than you’re telling

Well I know you’ve been running around

I know you’ve been running around

Cause you’re so happy

Good things happen to bad people

Good things happen to bad people

But only, but only, for a while

You cried the day, I walked you down the aisle

And I know you’ve been bad from the way you smile

[Guitar solo]

Good things happen to bad people

Good things happen to bad people

But only, but only, for a while

You cried the day, I walked you down the aisle

And I know you’ve been bad from the way you smile.
