And always helped someone in trouble
Want everyone to gather ‘round
Yeah, I wanna be a good man
I wanna be the one
On the day they lay me down
Who lived a good life, loved a good wife
My dreams aren’t that complicated
Want everyone to gather ‘round
When all is said and done
He was a good man'
And say, 'He was a father, brother, neighbor and a friend
Used to dream of havin’ a fast car
And say, 'He was a father, brother, neighbor and a friend
Who lived a good life, loved a good wife
Who lived a good life, loved a good wife
On the day they lay me down
So I can buy my buddies a round
But I’ve heard tell those streets aren’t paved in gold
When all is said and done
And always helped someone in trouble
I wanna be the one
All I want is a place to lay my head
When all is said and done
I want everyone to gather ‘round
And seein’ the world in style
And driving that miracle mile
Kind of understated
I wanna be the one
I just need a little green in my pocket
Love is something you gotta earn
On the day they lay me down
When I’m gone, I wanna leave a legacy
Of love and laughs and honesty behind me, behind me
Used to dream of being a rock star
He was a good man'
A father, a brother, a neighbor and a friend
They’re full of pot holes and empty souls
And say, 'He was a father, brother, neighbor and a friend
Who never learn
And always helped someone in trouble
He was a good man'
With the woman I love lyin’ in my bed
