I try to recycle I try to watch what I eat
Try not to lie try not to cheat
I try to do all the things my mama said I should do
But it's hard bein' good with a girl like you
I try to stay focused I try to concentrate
Keep my feet on the ground keep my head on straight
I try to live my life like I'm supposed to
But it's hard bein' good with a girl like you
With a girl like you I get a little confused
Which way should I turn which path should I choose
I'm doin' all that I can what more can I do
It's hard bein' good with a girl like you
[ steel ]
I give up drinkin' and I don't fool around
I try not to get too far up or down
I try to do unto others like I'd like to be done unto
But it's hard bein' good with a girl like you
Oh with a girl like you I get a little confused...
It's hard bein' good with a girl like you
It's hard bein' good with a girl like you
