Sam Johnson - Good Woman Lyrics



Sam Johnson - Good Woman Lyrics




She lines 'em up, two doubles of Jameson in plastic cups
Says honey, come on, don't make me drink alone
Throws 'em both back and lights her cigarette on the gas stove
I'm too old to be acting like this, I know
But there's more poison in my heart than in the bottle

Awash in the glow of an old TV, Halloween 2 on AMC
She's somewhere far away when she starts speaking
About a little girl who loved dressing up in bedsheets
She'd run around pretending to be Casper the friendly ghost
It's those meager memories that turn mighty for the unconsoled

Hazy eyes and pale, pale skin
The geography of a good woman who went bad

She microwaves a TV dinner paid for by the state
Says honey, come on, don't make me eat alone
Pushes her food around the plate till it gets cold
I burned all your get-well cards in the kitchen sink
Maddening mementos of your exit
She stumbles into bed, a bleary shadow of a good woman
Says honey, come on, please let me sleep alone
I'm tired of seeing you everywhere I go
There's a hole in my heart and a valley in my arm
Bruce said there's a meanness in this world
And, yeah, it found me when I lost my North Star

Hazy eyes and pale, cracked skin
The geography of a good woman who went bad
Who wouldn't go bad?
