Good Enough

Well I can't help it if my heart is on my sleeve
It takes all the strength I have to get to the next day
Well I left home lonely but excited
Well anxious and misguided
Just to find, love was a phone call away
I found the secret to success while in north Hollywood
She told me "never tell your friends the entire truth"
She had her right on a bible, swore she'd never been a liar
And when she smiled I knew what I had to do
She said "Angel won't you settle down now elsewhere
Cause this town don't like your kind boy
They'll eat you up alive
And it ain't good
It's no good for you to see the things I do
Well it ain't good
It's not good enough for you"
And I walked down to the nearest corner store
And I said "Mister will you make change of my dollar?"
He gave my change with a smile
Asked if I'd like to stay awhile
He said "Man, won't you tell me 'bout your problems"
And I said "Mister I can't seem to turn my life around
Now mister why can't I be just like you?
Honest and always with a smile
With a heart for, everyone around him
And when time comes, you always know what to do."
And he said "Angel won't you settle down now elsewhere
Cause this town don't like your kind boy
They'll eat you up alive
And it ain't good
It's no good for you to see the things I do
Well it ain't good
It's not good enough for you"
And it ain't good
It's no good for you to see the things I do
Well it ain't good
It's not good enough for you
And if there's a problem
Learn to solve it
That's what the world says
And if there's a problem
Learn to solve it
That's what the world says
Well it ain't good
It's no good for you to see the things I do
Well it ain't good
It's not good enough for you
And it ain't good
It's no good for you to see the things I do
Well it ain't good
It's not good enough for you
And can't help it if my heart is on my sleeve
It takes all the strength I have to get to the next day
