(Mac McAnally) Well the daylight drags me out of bed And the nightlife drags me home In the meantime I drag round half dead Restin up for later on Well I wrack my brain to easy my mind But I always edge my bet On the tail of every trend I find But I don't feel nothin' yet Lookin' for the good life It's just about to make me loose my mind Lookin' for the good life It's keepin me miserable all the time As a child a dream is all it takes To get you through the night Now it costs me every dime I make Just to say I feel alright Lookin' for the good life It's just about to make me loose my mind Lookin' for the good life It's keepin me miserable all the time Well I looked in the books and the movies And I sat through the tv shows Got the Vcr and the ja'causezi And I statr at the speakers on the stereo And my conscience just keeps raging Until I wish it was back down low. Lookin' for the good life It's just about to make me loose my mind Lookin' for the good life It's keepin me miserable all the time
