"Good Timin' Man" lyrics - WHITEY MORGAN AND THE 78'S

Three nights in old Arizona
Gotta get me out to California
Yeah, she's waitin' there for me

Feelin' wrong, but I'll get right
Let me hit that stage tonight
Yeah, they're waitin' there for me
They're all waitin' there for me

But it's hard to be that good timin' man
While I'm drownin' my misery
With this bottle in my hand
But put on a smile and my old guitar
And sing "Jean" yet again
And I try to be that good timin' man

[Instrumental bridge]

All these people, they just don't see
What her and that bottle been doin' to me
Seems every night I walk the floor

I was drunk in Oklahoma City
Well, the whiskey was strong
And the girls were pretty
Every night there's more and more
Seems every night there's more and more

But it's hard to be that good timin' man
While I'm drownin' my misery
With this bottle in my hand
But put on a smile and my old guitar
And sing "Jean" yet again
And I try to be that good timin' man
And I try to be that good timin' man
