A long time forgotten
Are dreams that just fell by the way
And the good life he promised
Ain't what she's living today
But she never complains
Of the bad times or bad things he's done, Lord
She just talks about the good times they've had
And all the good times to come

She's a good-hearted woman
In love with a good-timin' man
She loves him in spite of his ways
That she don't understand
Through teardrops and laughter
They'll pass through this world hand in hand
A good-hearted woman
Lovin' her good-timin' man

He likes the night life
The bright lights, and good-timin' friends
When the party's all over
She'll welcome him back home again
Lord knows she don't understand him
But she does the best that she can
'Cause she's a good-hearted woman;
She loves her good-timin' man
She's a good-hearted woman
In love with a good-timin' man
She loves him in spite of his ways
That she don't understand
Through teardrops and laughter
They'll pass through this world hand in hand
A good-hearted woman
Lovin' her good-timin' man
