better than i ought to be

well i'm a whole lot better than i ought to be

don't know why things keep going right for me

all i've ever done is run wild and free

i'm a whole lot better than i ought to be

well i guess i must've done something right

some other time or place maybe some other life

there's no way i deserve how i've been blessed

if it was up to me i'd still be a mess

cause i'm a whole lot better than i ought to be

don't know why things keep going right for me

all i've ever done is run wild and free

i'm a whole lot better than i ought to be

and oh i don't wanna wake up

i just wanna keep living this dream

oh i could never make up

anything as good as what's happening to me

well i try my best but i can do no wrong

blues come my way but they never stay long

i thought i had it all when i didn't have a buck

it ain't easy having all the luck

well i'm a whole lot better than i ought to be

don't know why things keep going right for me

all i've ever done is run wild and free

i'm a whole lot better than i ought to be

all i've ever done is run wild and free
