Lyrics
Good News
Words & Music by Steve Morelock
@1998
Well my doctor called me up
It was just the other day
Said he?d gotten a chance to look at my most recent x-rays
Said, ?The whiskey?s gotta go and those cigarettes too
Why, just take a look at yourself and see what they?re doin? to you?
Chorus:
I could use some good news
I could use some good news
Seems no matter what I do I just can?t get through to you
I could use some good news
Well my lawyer called me up
It was just the other day
Said my divorce proceedings weren?t exactly goin? my waySaid, ?The house has got to go and that convertible automobile?
Then he hopped in the car, the top was down, my wife was behind the wheel
Well my agent called me up
It?s still clear in my memory
Said that record deal he?d been workin? on had finally come through for me
He said, ?There?s just one thing that I thought you should know
They said the band could stay but they told me to tell you, you?ve gotta go.?
