Sold my soul a long time ago
Over on Blacksnake road
Traded my life for 25
Years of stealing the show
My fingers turned to lightning when I picked up that six string
The people would gather around as I got down and I would start to sing
It's a good life
Behind a mic
Under those stage lights
They were bright
And the beams were high but so was I
It's a Good life
It's a Good life
They all would arrive, at each and every show
And like I asked we began to grow.
Seeing red through the smoke
Eyes were red from the dope
It was live this life or say goodbye
To everyone you know
It's a good life
Behind a mic
Under those stage lights
They were bright
And the beams were high but so was I
It's a Good life
It's a Good life
Went through hell to get back to get to where I was at
Broken heart, brand new starts, and a closed curtain act
The devil thought I was done and threw his head back
But I ain't finished yet I'll be the one with the last laugh
It's a good life
Behind the mic
Under those stage lights
But when they get bright
Keep your head high
And look toward the sky
It's a Good life
It's a Good life
It's a good life
Behind the mic
Under those stage lights
But when they get bright
Keep your head high
And look toward the sky
It's a Good life
It's a Good life
