Good Thing's Gone Bad - James Otto, Ronnie Milsap

Someone’s been steppin' in

While you’ve been steppin' out

You thought you were slick, my friend

You thought you had it figured out

Honey

But she was tired of bein' used

Heard your last bad excuse

Never thought she’d cut you loose

Don’t look so surprised

You know you had it comin'

If you hadn’t have stayed out all night long

(You wouldn’t be sittin' here wonderin' why)

(Waitin' by the phone with a tear in your eye)

Runnin' all over town doin' her wrong

(Actin' like you ain’t got a thing to lose)

(Thinkin' you’re a player but you’re playin' a fool)

Maybe you could’ve held on to what you had

(Should've treated her better when you had the chance)

Good thing’s gone bad, yeah, it has

I know when you come and go

And I know how long you’ll be

But don’t look across the street

For sympathy

'Cause you’re not gonna get it

Well, you’re such a busy man

She don’t seem to fit your plans

I’ll take her off your hands

Don’t worry 'bout it, brother

You know I got you covered

If you hadn’t have stayed out all night long

(You wouldn’t be sittin' here wonderin' why)

(Waitin' by the phone with a tear in your eye)

Runnin' all over town doin' her wrong

(Actin' like you ain’t got a thing to lose)

(Thinkin' you’re a player but you’re playin' a fool)

Maybe you could’ve held on to what you had

(Should've treated her better when you had the chance)

Good thing’s gone bad, yeah, it has

If you hadn’t have stayed out all night long

(You wouldn’t be sittin' here wonderin' why)

Runnin' all over town doin' her wrong

(Waitin' by your phone with a tear in your eye)

Maybe you could’ve held on to what you had

If you hadn’t have stayed out all night long

(You wouldn’t be sittin' here wonderin' why)

Runnin' all over town doin' her wrong

(Waitin' by your phone with a tear in your eye)

Maybe you could’ve held on to what you had

(Should've treated her better when you had the chance)
