Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well, a long time forgotten
Our dreams have just fell by the way
And the good life he promised
Ain't what she's livin' today
[Verse 2]
But she never complains of the bad times
Or bad things he's done, Lord
She just talks about the good times they've had
And all the good times to come
[Chorus]
She's a good-hearted woman in love with a good-timin' man
She loves him in spite of his ways that she don't understand
Through teardrops and laughter, they'll pass through this world hand in hand
A good-hearted woman lovin' her good-timin' man
[Verse 3]
He likes the nightlife
Brights lights and good-timin' friends
When the party's all over
She'll welcome him back home again
[Verse 4]
Lord knows she don't understand him
But she does the best that she can
'Cause she's a good-hearted woman
She loves her good-timin' man
[Chorus]
She's a good-hearted woman in love with a good-timin' man
And she loves him in spite of his wicked ways that she don't understand
Through teardrops and laughter, they'll pass through this world hand in hand
A good-hearted woman lovin' her good-timin' man
[Outro]
She's a good-hearted woman in love with a good-timin' man
She loves me in spite of my wicked ways that she don't understand
Through teardrops and laughter, we'll pass through this world hand in hand, Lord
A good-hearted woman lovin' her good-timin' man
