"Sweet Life" lyrics - RIVAL SONS
Well, I got more trouble than I'll ever need
And it's less money than I know what to do with
Hard living like to bring me to my knees
And I don't even know if I'm gonna get through it
[Pre-Chorus:]
Don't tell me that my patience is a virtue
I need some good news, I need some good news
Don't tell me that I got to be without you
I got to have, I got to have some of that-
[Chorus:]
Sweet life
Sweet life
Mine, all mine
I got to shake, shake
Shake the bad rhythm
I got to shake, shake
Shake the bad rhythm for good
Won't the Good Lord come and rescue me?
Oh, the high water is only getting higher
Damn Devil like to chase me up the tree
And he's laughing below while he set it on fire
[Pre-Chorus:]
Don't tell me that the sun come out tomorrow
I need it now, babe, I need it now
You know it's hard living in a permanent shadow
I'm gettin' out now, I'm gettin' out
I want that-
[Chorus:]
Sweet life
Sweet life
Mine, all mine
I got to shake, shake
Shake the bad rhythm
I got to shake, shake
Shake the bad rhythm for good
[Instrumental break]
[Chorus:]
Sweet life
Sweet life
Mine, all mine
Sweet life
Sweet life
Mine, all mine
I got to shake, shake
Shake the bad rhythm
I got to shake, shake
Shake the bad rhythm
I got to shake, shake
Shake the bad rhythm
I got to shake, shake
Shake the bad rhythm for good
