Good Man

Mama told me when I was young

Don’t mess with fire

Always finish what you’ve begun

And don’t deal with liars

Don’t walk too tall, don’t talk too wise

Don’t make dreams your master

She’s been gone for three years now

I can still hear her calling

And when the black clouds come wash over you

Will you stand tall and strong, or blame it on luck

When your soul’s put on trial before the judge

Will you say you were a good man?

{Verse 3]

Last night, as I laid down to sleep

I saw the ghost of my mama

By my bedside praying for me

She said son, your time is coming

But when the black clouds come wash over you

Will you stand tall and strong, or blame it on luck

When your soul’s put on trial before the judge

Will you say you were a good man?

A good man

Are you a good man?

But when the black clouds come wash over you

Will you stand tall and strong, or blame it on luck

When your soul’s put on trial before the judge

Will you say you were a good man?

A good man

Are you a good man?

Were you a good man?

Are you a good man?
