“Good Hearted Man”

Hard days and harder nights.
Working 6 to 6 just to barely get by.
Pushin’ 60 hours for a minimum wage.
Fightin’ city traffic on the need to get paid.

I’ll hold on for 1 more week.
Then I’ll tell the boss to shove it, and he won’t even speak.
‘Cuz the more I try the less I buy.
All hell’s breaking loose, and I say give it to the good guy.

I’m a Good Hearted Man, But Bad On the Outside.
I’ll Get Up On Demand, Then Glide On the Down Side.
You’ll Never Know What’s Coming Next.
I’ll Be Your Knight in Armor, by Conquerin’ Lands.
Then Ride You On My Horse. I’m a Good Hearted Man.

I bring girls in and I send girls out.
I try to find the one but the one’s left in doubt.
They say the early bird, always gets their worm.
And the late for the date, lonely get what they’ve earned.

And that’s a kick in the ass, sorry to be so brass.
I knew I had it comin’ but it came too fast.
‘Cuz my need to be first, at the front of the line.
Has a way of getting even, now give me a good sign.

I’m a Good Hearted Man, But Bad On the Outside.
I’ll Get Up On Demand, Then Glide On the Down Side.
You’ll Never Know What’s Coming Next.
I’ll Be Your Servant Waitin’, In the Palm of Your Hand.
Then Valet Park You Right. I’m a Good Hearted Man.

Solo:

I kinda walk slow and don’t talk too fast.
My wit and charm is lacking, but I do it with class.
So if you feel the need, to come interrupt my fun.
I’ll open up your door, to sure the good guys won.

I’m a Good Hearted Man, But Bad On the Outside.
I’ll Get Up On Demand, Then Glide On the Down Side.
You’ll Never Know What’s Coming Next.
I’ll Be Your Prince Charming, by Taking Your Hand.
My Damsel In Distress. I’m a Good Hearted Man.
