Wouldn't It Be Good Lyrics
[00:40.74] I got it bad
[00:42.53] You don't know how bad I got it
[00:45.59] You got it easy
[00:47.26] You don't know when you've got it good
[00:50.56] It's getting harder
[00:52.28] Just keeping life and soul together
[00:55.32] I'm sick of fighting
[00:56.91] Even though I know I should
[00:59.81] The cold is biting
[01:02.14] Through each and every nerve and fiber
[01:05.26] My broken spirit is frozen to the core
[01:09.63] I don't wanna be here no more
[01:13.62] Wouldn't it be good to be in your shoes
[01:17.74] Even if it was for just one day?
[01:22.71] Wouldn't it be good if we could wish ourselves away?
[01:32.68] Wouldn't it be good to be on your side?
[01:37.62] The grass is always greener over there
[01:42.63] Wouldn't it be good if we could live without a care?
[01:53.73] You must be joking
[01:55.88] You don't know a thing about it
[01:58.46] You've got no problem
[02:00.50] I'd stay right there if I were you
[02:03.75] I got it harder
[02:05.49] You couldn't dream how hard I got it
[02:08.47] Stay out of my shoes
[02:10.49] If you know what's good for you
[02:13.09] The heat is stifling
[02:15.10] Burning me up from the inside
[02:17.74] The sweat is coming through each and every pore
[02:23.08] I don't wanna be here no more
[02:27.96] I don't wanna be here no more
[02:33.16] I don't wanna be here no more
[03:25.22] Wouldn't it be good to be in your shoes
[03:29.94] Even if it was for just one day?
[03:34.93] Wouldn't it be good if we could wish ourselves away?
[03:43.07] Ooh-ooh-ooh
[03:44.71] Wouldn't it be good to be on your side?
[03:49.56] The grass is always greener over there
[03:54.59] Wouldn't it be good if we could live without a care?
[04:06.23] I got it bad
[04:07.10] You don't know how bad I got it
[04:10.96] You got it easy
[04:12.66] You don't know when you've got it good
[04:15.71] It's getting harder
[04:17.49] Just keeping life and soul together
[04:20.88] I'm sick of fighting
