Lyrics
You work your whole life
And it’s gone
You think you live right
And it’s gone
You take the bad things
You make your own sins
Well, I want the good things
To come to me now
Good things come to me now
Yeah I want the good things
I want them now
I want the sweet things
Oh and how
I want the big rings
Don’t want the simple things
I want the good things
To come to me now
Good things come to me now
Is it such a crime
To want a little time
With the good things in my life
Can it be so wrong
To long and long and long
For the good things
For the sweet things
Yeah I want the good things
I want them now
I want the sweet things
Oh and how
I don’t care how you bring
You can talk or sing
But I want the good things
To come to me now
Good things come to me now
