The Slackers – You Must Be Good lyrics
[Chorus]
You must be good, so that you can sleep at night
You must be good, so that your mama can hold you tight
And you must be good, or the devil come lick you
You must be good, don't let him trick you
Oh every day, tempted by temptation
And every night by another situation
But you must be wise, be wise and recognize
Or the devil come pull you down in a girlish disguise
[Chorus]
Avarice and envy, lord these sins are deadly
Greed and vanity, they hurt a good man plenty
But you must beware, and take care in your youthful insobriety
Your cup may be full now but in the end it will be empty.
[Chorus]
You must be good, so that you can sleep at night
You must be good, so that your mama can hold you tight
And you must be good, or the devil come lick you
You must be good, don't let him trick you
Oh every day, tempted by temptation
And every night by another situation
But you must be wise, be wise and recognize
Or the devil come pull you down in a girlish disguise
[Chorus]
Avarice and envy, lord these sins are deadly
Greed and vanity, they hurt a good man plenty
But you must beware, and take care in your youthful insobriety
Your cup may be full now but in the end it will be empty.
[Chorus]
