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 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
