Don't let the good times fool you
Don't let your passion rule you
Love's not built on mean and good alone
 
Don't let the neon blind you
Or the morning just might find you
Waking up to find the good times gone
 
Honky-tonk happiness disappears
When the morning sun comes 'round
But my heart is open around the clock
When loneliness gets you down
 
Smoke-filled rooms and painted ladies
Don't always satisfy
But my love is like a rock for you to lean on
And yours 'til the day I die
 
Don't let the good times fool you
Don't let your passion rule you
Love's not built on mean and good alone
 
Don't let the neon blind you
Or the morning just might find you
Waking up to find the good times gone
 
The bottle might turn you on
And make you feel good for a little while
But a bottle can't hold you tenderly
Or greet you with a happy smile
 
If you keep on swimming in your sea of pity
Somebody's gonna pull the plug
Why don't you turn on to what you've got at home
Where a guy's best time is love
 
And don't let the good times fool you
Don't let your passion rule you
Love's not built on mean and good alone
 
Don't let the neon blind you
Or the morning just might find you
Waking up to find the good times gone
 
No, don't let the good times fool you
Don't let your passion rule you
Love's not built on mean and good alone…
