Of a good thing


Shelby was a stripper and a damn 
good mechanic and a friend
She used to pick me up in her 64 and
 take me places I?d never been
She drank vodka on the rocks in a 
tall glass
Chased with cocaine and her teenage 
girlfriends
I couldn?t face her, that?s OK
But now she?s living with a girl 
named Renee
Last I heard she was techin? in 
?Frisco
She?s got a good thing

Alice was a bartender at a place I 
used to play for a while
Some of the girls didn?t like she?d 
get 20 dollar tips with a smile
I used to talk to her, try to get in
 her head
We?d just end up drunk in my bed
I never knew her, that?s OK
She?s in Vegas making 5 bills a day
She said I wasn?t too much fun when 
I was sober
And now she?s got a good thing

So here?s to the lady who?s name it 
hurts me to say
She?s the proverbial one that got 
away
She said life is all a young girl 
has
And I can?t find my  mine while 
living in yours
I don?t blame her, that?s OK
She?s married with a kid and a kid 
on the way
And I?m glad I didn?t stand in the 
way
Of a good thing
