Good Things Happen to Bad People

Sweet thing, believe me You'll never deceive me You stared me down without blinking That's when I really started thinking You must have been running around You must have been running around 'Cause you were smiling Your friends say you're antsy For something fancy Like a caged bird that's broken free You want to fly high and mess on me Well I know you've got a secret or two Your hair's in a brand new 'do And you're so happy Good things happen to bad people Good things happen to bad people But only, but only, for a while You cried the day I walked you down the aisle And I know you've been bad From the way you smile Mona Lisa what a teaser What's that strange cologne I'm smelling You know more than you're telling Well I know you been running around I know you been running around 'Cause you're so happy Good things happen to bad people Good things happen to bad people But only, but only, for a while You cried the day I walked you down the aisle And I know you've been bad From the way you smile Good things happen to bad people Good things happen to bad people But only, but only, for a while You cried the day I walked you down the aisle And I know you've been bad From the way you smile --- Good Things Happen to Bad People - Richard Thompson
