As Good As You've Been To This World Lyrics

Live your loving life
You live it all the best you can
And if you pay no attention, darling
To what you might ever hear from your man

I think you're just like a servant
And try to keep it all to yourself
Don't you know what makes the world go round?
You gotta go and honey, share everywhere else
Come on, come on, come on

As good as you've been to this world
So good, I wanna be right back to you
As good as you've been now

As good as you've been to this whole wide world
So good, I wanna be
As good as you've been now, say

As good as you've been to this whole wide world
As good as you've been, babe
So good, I wanna be here

Ain't no use in being faithful
I see you look at the sky
I know what's in it make you happy there
But it only make you cry

I think you got good intentions too
They don't manage to show through
Whatever you give to the world outside
I wanna give it right back to you, yes, I am
Come on, come on, come on

So you meet somebody on the street
You know you treat him mighty fine
Or you meet somebody on the street
And you give him a real hard time

It's gonna come on home, baby
I said, it's gonna come right back home to you
I said, it's gonna visit you now
Yes, it is, oh, yes, it is

Good as you've been to this whole wide world
Good as you've been, babe
So good, I wanna be here

Oh, good as you've been to this whole wide world
Good as you've been, babe
So good, I wanna be here

Ah, the way you love your mother
The way you love your sister, your brother
The way you love your aunt, your uncle
Anybody now, everybody now

Good as you've been, babe, hurray
Good as you've been, babe, hey
Good as you've been, babe, hey
Good as you've been, babe

'Cause I'm just gonna show you now
And I'm just gonna make you want it now
'Cause I'm just gonna keep it real

Say, good as you been, babe
Hurray, good as you been, babe
Come on, good as you been, babe
I say, good as you been, babe

Oh, daddy, good as you been, babe
My man, good as you been, babe
All right, yeah, hey
