Good For Me

well i'm sitting here looking pretty good i guess
i got my new shirt on, my suit all pressed
about to spend my money, what i mean
on a girl that i have never seen
as long as she's real pretty it'll be all right
it might be good for me

good for me, i tell you
i've got to do just like i want to do
they say a little love never killed a man
it might be good for me

i met the little woman at the kitchen door
she said she found me a job at the grocery store
i said wait a minute baby, can't you see?
best to tell that man to come and work for me
baby you ain't got a future in rock 'n' roll
but it's looking pretty good for me

good for me, you don't know
when it's time for me to stop and go
they say a little hard work never killed a man
it wouldn't be good for me

well i'm sitting here looking pretty doggone fine
i got my good rug on, got my shoes both shined
about to spend my money, what'd i say
on a big butt gal, i'll throw it all away
if she's real pretty it'll be okay
it might be good for me

good for me, it's like this
i am the mighty king of love's doncha dare resist
a little hugging and kissing never hurt you girl
it might be good for me

good for me, i tell you
i've got to do just like i want to do
they say a little love never killed a man
it might be good for me
