May Your Kindness Remain

You're a good woman and a good friend You got a good heart even when it's busted and bent Lipstick and perfume, under gram queen Wearing loneliness like a costume for the whole world to see And if your money runs out And your good looks fade May your kindness remain Oh, may your kindness remain Broke on a barstool, throwin' your paycheck away On overpriced booze, slots and valet Fortune might buy diamonds, all shiny and new But it can't buy you happiness or love, that is true And if your money runs out And your good looks fade May your kindness remain Oh, may your kindness remain The richest of people Aren't rich with Elvis, cars or fame No, they're not rich with something That can be bought or arranged No, it's kindness that makes them beautiful And a kind heart don't cost a dime It's a gift that keeps giving For the rest of your life And if your money runs out And your good looks fade May your kindness remain Oh, may your kindness remain May your kindness remain Oh, may your kindness remain
