Lyrics
A-one, two, three, go
Daddy always told me money don't mean everything
Consider yourself a lucky man, you got a guitar and you still can sing
As usual my Daddy was right
I got two kids, two cats, a good dog and a lucky hat
An old house, a fast car, but I don't go very far
I got a beautiful wife and I'm leading a good life
Well I wake up in the morning at the crack of dawn, hit the clock before it rings
I work hard all day but at quitting time I forget about everything
I walk out those doors and back into the light
Whoa! Hey!
I got two kids, two cats, a good dog and a lucky hat
An old house, a fast car, but I don't go very far
I got a beautiful wife and I'm leading a good life
I'm leading a good life
Just because they sign my check that don't mean they own my soul
It took me a while to figure it out but Daddy now I know
As usual my Daddy was right
I have two kids, two cats, a good dog and a lucky hat
An old house, a fast car, but I don't go very far
I got a beautiful wife and I'm leading a good life
I'm living a good life
I'm living a good life
I'm living a good life
Whoa! Whoa!
Na-na na-na na-na-na
