Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I'm a good man

Food on the table

Workin' two jobs

Ready, willin', and able, check

I'm good man

I'm havin' fun

And got no kids and I love the Lord, check

I'm good man

I'm monogamous

Never did time, well maybe just once, check

I'm a good man

And I puts it down

Wanna say it twice, well, I puts it down, check

(Check, check)

[Verse 2]

How could you ever walk away

After all I've done for you?

I feel like there's a knife in my back, babe

You might as well put it all the way through

Good man

[Verse 3]

I'm a good man

Food on the table

Workin' two jobs

Ready, willin', and able, check (Good man)

I'm a good man

I'm havin' fun

Got no kids and I love the Lord, check (Good man)

I'm a good man

I'm monogamous

Never did time, well maybe just once, check (Good man)

I'm a good man

And I puts it down

Wanna say it twice, well, I puts it down, check

[Verse 4]

You watched them handcuff me, lady

And walked me through my own home

I never been so humiliated

I don't think that I deserved this from you

Good man

[Verse 5]

I'm a good man

Food on the table

Workin' two jobs

Ready, willin', and able, check (Good man)

I'm a good man

I'm havin' fun

Got no kids and I love the Lord, check (Good, good man)

I'm a good man

I'm monogamous

Never did time, well maybe just once, check (Good man)

I'm a good man

And I puts it down

Wanna say it twice, well, I puts it down, check

[Verse 6]

Right now, I'm better

(What was I goin' through?)

Better than ever

(That was the hardest time of my life)

So much better now

(But I do understand, you gotta go through it to get to it)

My life is better

(But I just didn't think I'd be going through this)

My love is greater

(With you)

So much better

(But I'm so much better now)

Without you (Let the horns blow)

[Verse 7]

I never felt so good inside

Without you

I never felt so good inside

[Verse 8]

(I'm a good man)

How could you just get up and walk away?

See, but, but when things got rough

You quickly ran in to trade me, somebody save me

(I'm a good man)

There's one thing I know

So I'm gonna tell you

That I'm a good man

Thanks to you

Good man
