A LOT OF GOOD
(Waylon Jennings / Troy Seals / Bobby Emmons)

Waylon Jennings


As I watched the tail lights disappear
Suddenly it got real lonely here
I know the words I could have said
To make her turn around
But a lot of good it's gonna do me now

I could have started with I'm sorry
And really meant it from the heart
The rest would have been easy
Together in the dark

We could have found that old time feeling
That we lost somewhere somehow
But a lot of good it's gonna do me now

Still thinking about the things I could have said
And looking at her picture by the bed
I realized just what I've lost as I pulled the covers down
But a lot of good it's gonna do me now

I could have told her I was sorry
And really meant it from the heart
The rest would have been easy
Together in the dark

We could have found that old time feeling
That we lost somewhere somehow
But a lot of good it's gonna do me now
A lot of good it's gonna do me now
