Good As My Word lyrics

lyrics by stephen egerton and bill stevenson
music by stephen egerton
ain`t it funny everybody
thinks that i`m a slime
and i`ve never done much of anything to deserve it


it`s a wonder i can function
feels like i`m on trial
i need to set things straight so you`ll know you can trust me


always looking never finding
got me nothing to call my own
always lying never trying
always got me nowhere


i`m just as good as my word
no matter what you`ve heard
don`t judge me on the blown up rumours that you overheard
i`m just as good as my word
no matter what you heard
this is a different time and place and you`re a different girl


heard a story not to worry
it shows that you don`t know
you know everyone can do both good and evil


say you love me thinking of me
it don`t make much sense
to say those things to me when you don`t even trust me


always looking never finding
got me nothing to call my own
always lying never trying
always got me nowhere


i`m just as good as my word
no matter what you`ve heard
don`t judge me on the blown up rumors that you overheard
i`m just as good as my word
no matter what you heard
this is a different time and place and you`re a different girl
this is now
