Lyric You Never Know Just How Good You ve Got It

(Mark Nessler)

Hey once I was a honky tonkin talk of the town
Ridin high in my bad Chevrolet
I had seven pretty women Lord hanging on me
A different one for every day
But look at me now all my women s left town
And a buck is getting hard to come by
Well I must confess my life s a big mess
I m so low I could lay down and die

Well you never know just how good you ve got it
Till you ain t got it no more
You never know just how high you re flying
Till you fall face down on the floor
All I can do is just moan the blues
And dream about what I had before
Hey you never know just how good you ve got it
Till you ain t got it no more

Here lately I ve become one pool sharkin fool
Make my living on the buddies of mine
I was cookin last night when the chips were all down
So I laid everything I had on the line
I knew I d regret that hundred dollar bet
But you never learn until it s too late
We flipped and I lost and then I paid the cost
When the eight fell in on the break

Well you never know just how good you ve got it
Till you ain t got it no more
You never know just how high you re flying
Till you fall face down on the floor
All I can do is just moan the blues
And dream about what I had before
Hey you never know just how good you ve got it
Till you ain t got it no more
No you never know just how good you ve got it
Till you ain t got it no more
