You've Got It Good

(Vs)

You look at your neighbor; the fruit of his labor,

and you wish you had what he's got,

but what you don't see is that emotionally

he's a wreck and his nerves are shot.

(Vs)

He's got plenty of dough, but nothing to show

when it comes to life's true treasure.

There's no love in his vault, cause it can't be bought

but its worth's beyond all measure.

(Ch.1)

You've got it good, you've got it good

money can't buy you happiness.

It won't kiss you goodnight

It won't make things right.

Not like her, you've got it good.

(Vs)

Just maybe that neighbor thinks your life is greater,

and wishes he had what you do.

A wife and children are worth more than a million

and he's poor compared to you.

(Ch. 2)

You've got it good, you've got it good

money can't buy you happiness.

It won't kiss you goodnight

It won't make things right.

Not like them, you've got it good.

(Bridge)

Family's all you ever need

All the wealth you need to succeed.

(Ch. 2)

You've got it good, you've got it good

money can't buy you happiness.

It won't kiss you goodnight

It won't make things right.

Not like them, you've got it good.
