I Let A Good Girl Go

I let a good girl go

I let a good girl go

She was good to me

But I hurt her constantly

I pushed her right out of my life

But now, now I'm paying the price

For letting a good girl go

I let a good girl go

She was on my side

Always standing by

But like a fool I ran her away

Lord, that was my biggest mistake

I let a good girl go

I let a good girl go

I let a good girl go

I let a good girl go

I never really told her

How much I cared

'Cause I didn't realize

That girl was so rare

But now she's gone

There ain't nothing I can do, ya'll

But say to myself

"Boy, you've been a fool"

Been a fool, boy, yes

She was good to me (good to me)

I hurt her constantly

I pushed her right out of my life (out of my life)

Now, now I'm paying the price

For letting a good girl go

I let a good girl go, yeah

I let a good girl go, oh

I let a good girl go, yeah

Never disregard her

Gonna wail, long cries

Woo, oh babe

(I let a good girl go) yeah

(I let a good girl go) oh, gone away, yeah

(I let a good girl go) babe, come back home girl

(I let a good girl go) sorry, sorry

(I let a good girl go) oh, I been wrong, oh

Been oh, been oh, been oh, been, been wrong (I let a good girl go)

(I let a good girl go...)
