Good Intentioned Lyrics

I told some folks a joke and they took it straight to heart.
I went to warm the engine and locked the keys inside my car.
I stood up for a girl and got thrown out of the bar.
Havin good intentions is makin my life hard.

Im good intentioned but that dont get me far,
It wont buy me a meal, no itd sooner see me starve.
It didnt keep my baby round, no she left me in the dark.
Im good intentioned but that dont get me far.

I picked up a drunken friend and got a ticket from the law,
I invested in the padding of the wallet of a con.
I helped another friend with cash and now Im overdrawn,
I just have to smile as I see it all go wrong.

Im good intentioned but that dont get me far,
It wont buy me a meal, no itd sooner see me starve.
It didnt keep my baby round, no she left me in the dark.
Im good intentioned but that dont get me far.

I gave a waggin dog a pet, his teeth sank to the bone.
I told a gal Id call but lost the number to her phone.
Well now Im sittin here drinkin beer so all alone,
I think Ill pay my tab and just get myself on home.

Im good intentioned but that dont get me far,
It wont buy me a meal, no itd sooner see me starve.
It didnt keep my baby round, no she left me in the dark.
Im good intentioned but that dont get me far.

Im good intentioned but that dont get me far,
It wont buy me a meal, no itd sooner see me starve.
It didnt keep my baby round, no she left me in the dark.
Im good intentioned but that dont get me far.

Im good intentioned but that dont get me far.
