Justin Townes Earle - The Good Life Lyrics

Well since you've left I've had no place to be
I'll spend most everyday doing as I please
I've got pockets full of money; hear a jingle when I walk
Yeah it's a good life from now on

Now if I walk down the street everybody knows my name
They all step aside and let me go my way
They all smile and snicker and some won't talk at all
Yeah it's a good life from now on

Oh and all the fancy restaurants won't let me wait inside
They serve me out the backdoor and never ask for a dime
So you tell me what I'm missing and I'll tell you where you're wrong
Yeah it's a good life from now on

Well now I could go anywhere and live this way
I could catch a first class trip on a mountain bound train
Yeah 'cause I've got nothing left here to keep me hanging on
Yeah it's a good life from now on
Yeah it's a good life for me from now on
