Text: Joe Walsh. The Definitive Collection. Life's Been Good.

I have a mansion forget the price

Ain't never been there they tell me it's nice

I live in hotels tear out the walls

I have accountants pay for it all



They say I'm crazy but I have a good time

I'm just looking for clues at the scene of the crime

Life's been good to me so far



My Maserati does 185

I lost my license now I don't drive

I have a limo ride in the back

I lock the doors in case I'm attacked



I'm making records my fans they can't wait

They write me letters tell me I'm great

So I got me an office gold records on the wall


Just leave a message maybe I'll call



Lucky I'm sane after all I've been through

Everybody says I'm cool (He's cool)

I can't complain but sometimes I still do

Life's been good to me so far



I go to parties sometimes until four

It's hard to leave when you can't find the door

It's tough to handle this fortune and fame

Everybody's so different I haven't changed



They say I'm lazy but it takes all my time

Everybody says Oh yeah (Oh yeah)

I keep on going guess I'll never know why

Life's been good to me so far
