The Grass Roots
Lollipop Train (You Never Had It So Good)
[Verse 1]
I know you think I don't amount to anything
You keep reminding me I've never had the means
To buy you fancy clothes and treat you like I said some day I would
[Chorus]
Oh, but don't you complain, babe
Don't let me hear you complain, hey
You're riding on a lollipop train and you never had it so good
[Verse 2]
Go on and sleep away the memories of nighttime's fun
I've never hassled with you like most guys would have done
Ah, and you know I've never questioned you 'bout where you go and all the things you do
[Chorus]
So, don't you complain, babe
Don't let me hear you complain, hey
You're riding on a lollipop train and you never had it so good
[Bridge]
The bed of roses that you seek
Ah, you could never lie in
And pretending to be what you're not, you see
Will only bring you cryin'
[Verse 3]
You better roll it over in your mind carefully
Before you say that you can do far better than me
Ha, look at the queen in her ragged gown demanding to her jester, a crown to hold
[Chorus]
Don't you complain, babe
Don't let me hear you complain, hey
You're riding on a lollipop train and you never had it so good
