"Good As It Gets" lyrics - BETH HART

BETH HART
"Good As It Gets"

Ain't got style like a magazine, no my shoes don't shine
Ain't got pride like a beauty queen, can't even walk a straight line
Somebody say the best things in life are on the inside
Say my name, all my love's in vain, in the welfare line

Nobody told me there'd be days like these
There's gotta be somethin' more than misery
It's the salt that stings

As good as it gets
I want the sunshine
(Good as it gets)
Champagne all the time
(Good as it gets)
I'll live on wine and roses, hold me closer
Until I break a sweat
It ain't as good as it gets

Workin' on dreams, call 'em "Jelly Beans", they make me laugh out loud
When the crowd screams it is good indeed and makes my mamma proud
Somebody say the best things in life, get 'em while I can
Say my name I think it's gonna rain, I got to find my man

Nobody told me where the sun gon' shine
Heaven is only when the good's inside, right before I die

As good as it gets
I want the sunshine
(Good as it gets)
Champagne all the time
(Good as it gets)
I'll live on wine and roses, hold me closer
Until I break a sweat
It ain't as good as it gets

Wanna break out, wanna break out, won't you let me in?
I wanna make out, wanna make out, fill my cup again
I wanna break out, wanna break out, won't you let me in?
I wanna make out, wanna make out, fill my cup again
To the fucking rim

As good as it gets
I want the sunshine
(Good as it gets)
Champagne all the time
(Good as it gets)
As good as it gets
I want the sunshine
(Good as it gets)
Champagne all the time
I'll live on wine and roses, hold me closer
And if I don't break a sweat
It ain't as good as it gets

As good as it gets
As good as it gets
As good as it gets

If I don't break a sweat
It ain't as good as it gets
