Good Things (outweight The Bad) — текст песни (Flatt and Scruggs)

I`ve been sittin` here thinkin` back over my life
All of the good things the trouble and strife
Well my share of heartache yes so many I`ve had
But I still think the good things outweight the bad
Well I broke my babies at night when they cry
I`ve seen the teardrops turning to smiles
And askin` if real life all the bad luck I`ve had
And I know all the good things outweight the bad

Well I never have britches no money to spare
Just a sharecropper`s wages is my only fare
Yes makin` my livin` just working the land
But I still think the good things outweight the bad
Well I broke my babies...
[ banjo ]
Yes I outwork the catton in the heat of the day
And then pay the landlord nearly all that I may
Well I`ve seen how water take all that I had
But I still think the good things outweight the bad
Well I broke my babies...
