Good As Gold
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Beer and wine waste of time
What have you got handy?
Got any whiskey, got any gin?
Have you got any brandy?
Don't lock me out
Don't leave me in the cold
If you'll only take me back
I'll be good as gold.
I met a man - name of stan
He had a dog called 'cory'
Lost my dog in...
But that's another story
I don't want no champagne fizz
I don't want no shandy
I don't want a goodnight kiss
It's just sugar candy
Don't lock me out
Don't leave me in the cold
If you'll only take me back
I'll be good as gold
I guarantee you'll going to see
A man you used to know
No more easy come for me, now
No more easy go.
Beer and wine waste of time
What have you got handy?
Got any whiskey, got any gin?
Have you got any brandy?
Don't lock me out
Don't leave me in the cold
If you'll only take me back
I'll be good as gold.
