Well, I'm a-gonna be better to me From now on, from now on
Cause a life I say may be my very own Before blondes and blues lay me cold on a slab of stone
I'm a-gonna be better to me From now on, from now on
Well, I've been living it up, taking each day Just as it comes and having a ball
But if I don't slow down before too long I may not be living at all
So I'm a-gonna be better to me From now on, from now on
Cause a life I say may be my very own
Before blondes and blues lay me cold on a slab of stone
I'm a-gonna be better to me From now on, from now on
I'm always drinking too much, can't stand the pace
And though those gals, they look pretty still
But I can't love them all, no way I try And if that don't start you thinking, nothing will
So I'm a-gonna be better to me From now on, from now on
Cause a life I say may be my very own Before blondes and blues lay me cold on a slab of stone
I'm a-gonna be better to me From now on, from now on
Yes, I'm a-gonna be better to me From now on, from now on
Cause a life I say may be my very own Before blondes and blues lay me cold on a slab of stone
I'm a-gonna be better to me From now on, from now on
