Take A Little Good Will Home

Well I've always been a real free hearted kind of a feller

I've been known to give away the shirt right off of my back

To buy drinks and dance with every little girl that look lonely

A little common sense is about the only thing I lack

Well I just stopped here to drink one beer on a payday

I got to feelin' real good the way a workin' man should about five

Now my money's all gone and I gotta go home to my baby

And she thinks I'm about the greatest little man alive

But she's been telling me that charity begins at home

And saying Willy if you're gonna be late at least phone

One man good will industry she's been a calling me

And sayin' Willy you oughta bring a little good will home

Well I should have known better to listen to you bartenders

But when advice is free it's all a fool like me can afford

And after listenin' to you I feel a whole lot worse instead of better

I could blame it on the talking but it might have been the drinks you poured

And now you're telling me that charity begins at home...

And sayin' Willy you sure took a good will home
