Lyrics: Merle Haggard. Good Hearted Woman.

A long time forgotten the dreams that just fell by the way
The good life he promised, ain't what she's living today
But she never complains of the bad times
And the bad things he's done Lord
She just talks about the good times they've had
And all the good times to come

She's a good hearted woman in love with a good timin' man
She loves him in spite of his ways she don't understand
Through teardrops and laughter
They'll pass through this world hand in hand
A good hearted woman lovin' a good timin' man

He likes the bright lights and night life and good timin' friends
And when the party's all over, she'll welcome him back home again
Lord knows she don't understand him but she does the best that she can
This a good hearted woman lovin' a good timin' man

She's a good hearted woman in love with a good timin' man
She loves me in spite of my wicked ways that she don't understand
Through teardrops and laughter
They'll pass through this world hand in hand
A good hearted woman lovin' a good timin' man

She's a good hearted woman in love with a good timin' man
She loves me in spite of my wicked [incomprehensible] ways
But then she don't understand
