All the Good Things Fade Away

(Pat Green)

Born lucky, I guess

Didn't hurt that I was in the right place

At the right time too.

That girl she was dandelion beautiful,

Damn she was beautiful.

The winter wind blows her like a bird

And the petals on the flower fly away

Sometimes it don't matter what you say

All the good things fade away

All the good things fade away

I found me a game out towards Shreveport

Couple days just hiding from the sun.

Good with the cards and

Good with the dice

You could say I had a lucky little run.

But what it all made it just a little bit more today

But all the luck you have is just the bills you left unpaid

All the good things fade away,

All the good things fade away.

Seems sure to me there has to be

Such a thing as the good ol' days

Some day somewhere my hair like my memories

Will all just fade out to gray

But they're all right now,

And I'd just as soon keep it that way.

All the good things fade away

All the good things fade away

All the good things fade away

All the good things fade away
