Lyrics

Got two cars and a chainlink fence Got insurance for accidents Nevermind what I don't know I dream of places I won't ever go But I lead a good life Yeah, I lead a good life 'N every Sunday we're out at the lake Teachin the kids how to jump the wake We drag em on two skis they kick one loose They don't know it, they hadn't got a clue That they lead a good life Yeah, they lead a good life Don't complain to me We're alright far as I can see Keep it to yourself Take that garbage somewhere else Yeah, we lead a good life You know, we lead a good life Don't complain to me We're alright far as I can see Keep it to yourself Grandpa died back in '85, now they won't let Grandma drive Bankers took everything he made He lost his fingers to a Bush Hog blade But he led a good life (he told me so) Yeah, he led a good life I've had about enough of you Tryin to tell us what to do We're gonna do just what we please Sell it all to the Japanese So we can lead a good life So we can lead a good life...
