Marshall Crenshaw: I've Been Good To You

(william robinson )

Look what you've done
You made a fool out of someone
You thought love was true
I found out that you, were just having fun
Oh why do you want to make me blue?
After all, I've been good to you
(I've been good to you)
Oh but I recall a time
You needed somebody and I made you mine
You needed a friend so I took you in and I treated you kind
Oh why do you wanna make me blue? ooooh
After all, I said I've been good to you

(I've been good to you) aw yeah
Woah now I've been good to you, to you
(I've been good to you)
Hey!
Now I have always been around
And I will never let you down
Now you're telling me that you must go
You know babe you're hurting me so
There'll come a time
Oh yeah one day, one day, one day you're gonna find
You'll come back to me and you'll be on your knees
And you're gonna be cryin'
Hey believe me when I say it's true, ooooh
After all now, that I've been good to you, awww
(I've been good to you)
Oh I've been good, I've been good, I've been good, to you, awww
(I've been good to you)
Oh now I've been good, I've been good to you, yes I have now
(I've been good to you)
I've been good, I've been good, I've been good..you, to you, aw

(marshall crenshaw )

I'm feelin' dazed and dissipated
I only know one thing for sure
Gotta find me a brand new lover
There isn't any other cure
All my lowdown lonely feelings
Have been working overtime somehow
Gotta find me a brand new lover
I know it better be right now
Right now, right now, right now now, right now
Oh I've got to make some changes
Before the walls close in
I tell you what I'm gonna do
When the night comes down babe I'm lookin' for you
I need some consolation
Baby come and take my hand
Gotta find me a brand new lover
I'm achin' more than I can stand
All my lowdown lonely feelings
Have been working overtime somehow
Gotta find me a brand new lover
I know it better be right now
Right now, right now, right now now, right now
Yeah yeah
I've got to make some changes
Before the walls close in
I tell you what I'm gonna do
When the night comes down babe I'm lookin' for you
I'm dazed and dissipated
I only know one thing for sure
Gotta find me a brand new lover
There isn't any other cure
