Good Mother

I've Got A Good Mother
Jan Arden

i've got money in my pocket
i like the colour of my hair
i've got a friend who loves me

i've got a house
i've got a car
i've got a good mother
and her voice is what keeps me here

feet on ground heart in hand
pacing forward be yourself

i've...i've never wanted anything
no i, no i've
i've never wanted anything so bad
so bad

card board masks of all the people i've been
thrown out with all the rusted tangled dented god damned misserys

you could say i'm hard to hold
but if you knew me you'd know
i've got a good father
and his strength is what makes me cry

feet on ground heart in hand
pacing forward be yourself

i've....i've never wanted anything
no i..no i've
i've never wanted anything so bad
so bad

(instrumental)

i've got money in my pockets
i like the colour of my hair
i've got a friend that loves me

i've gotta house
i've gotta car
i've gotta good mother
and her voice is what keeps me here

feet on ground heart in hand
pacing forward be yourself

heart in hand feet on ground
pacing forward be yourself

just be yourself
just be yourself
