Better Things

BETTER THINGS – ROBERT DEITCH

I COULD FOLD MY HANDS AND HIT MY KNEES

LIFT A PRAYER AND ASK GOD PLEASE

FOR A LITTLE HOPE TO HOLD ON TO

BUT I’VE GOT BETTER THINGS TO DO

I COULD WRITE SOME WORDS AND MAKE EM RHYME

12 BARS LONG IN 6/8 TIME

SIT RIGHT HERE AND SING THE BLUES

BUT IVE GOT BETTER THINGS TO DO

CAUSE I AIN’T WASTIN NO MORE TIME

FEELIN SORRY FOR THE CRIME

OF BEIN ME, AND LOVIN YOU

IVE GOT BETTER THINGS TO DO

LIKE WASH THE TRUCK, AND MAKE THE BED

MOW THE YARD AND PAINT THE SHED

I FIND THE MORE I FIND TO DO

GETS ME FURTHER OVER YOU

SO I AIN’T WASTIN NO MORE TIME

FEELIN SORRY FOR THE CRIME

OF BEIN ME, AND LOVIN YOU

IVE GOT BETTER THINGS TO DO

INSTRUMENTAL

YOU EITHER LOVE ME OR YOU DON’T

YOU’LL EITHER COME BACK OR YOU WON’T

YEAH I COULD SIT HERE MISSIN YOU, DRINK ANOTHER FIFTH OR TWO

BUT I’VE GOT BETTER THINGS TO DO

YEAH I’M GETTING GOOD AT GETTING ON

I EVEN WROTE MYSELF A SONG

I’M FINDIN BETTER THINGS TO DO
