Lyrics
GOOD LIFE
(M. Spence/L. Killam)
Another Monday morning
Fresh coffee on the table
A quick shower and breakfast there
For the day, I'm ready and able
Hop on the busy road ways
Just to get to work in time
The day's been kind to me so far
Come 5 o'clock, it's quitting time
BRIDGE
Just a few more years of labor
Then I get to retire finally
Then the life I've been sweatin' for
Will become reality
CHORUS
Getting to the good life
Seems to be the goal
Working and slaving
Pouring everything
From our soul
Digging till the day
Our dreams come to light
Working and slaving
Just to get to the good life
We do it 5 days a week
Some others, maybe more
Sweating and grinding
At times, it's really a chore
BRIDGE
CHORUS
