A long time forgotten Dreams that just fell by the way. The good life he promised, It ain't what she's living today. She's never complaining Of the bad times and the bad things he's done. Lord, she just talks about the good times they've had And the good times to come. She's a good-hearted woman In love with a good-timing man. She loves him in spite of his ways That she don't understand. Through teardrops and laughter They'll pass through this world hand in hand A good-timing woman In love with a good-hearted man. He likes the bright lights and night life And good-timing friends. When the party's all over She'll welcome him back home again. Kinky! Lord knows she don't understand him She does the best that she can, This good-hearted woman Loving a good-timing man. Kinky, aw! She's a good-hearted woman In love with a good-timing man, She loves me in spite of my wicked ways She don't understand. Through teardrops and laughter We'll pass through this world hand in hand, A good-timing woman In love with a good-hearted man. She's a good-timing woman In love with a good-hearted man. She loves me in spite of my donald duck ways She don't understand. (one more time!) Through teardrops and laughter We'll pass through this world hand in hand Kinky! A good-timing woman In love with a good-hearted man. Ah-ooh! A good-timing woman In love with a good-hearted man. Ah-ooh! One, two, three
